In the light of recent police announcements I have taken down
the St Georges flag from beside the house and peeled the burglar alarm sticker off the front door. We've disconnected our home alarm system and quit our neighbourhood watch. I've bought two Pakistani flags on Ebay and raised them in the front garden, one at each corner, plus a black flag of ISIS in the centre. Now the local police, CID, MI5, SAS and other counter terrorism agencies are all watching the house 24/7. We've never felt safer and we're saving £24.95 a month. |

We had some heaters in the large fish tanks and some propane heaters we'd turn on when the weather was cold to keep the plants from freezing if the warm water didn't keep it warm enough. I don't know if they were using heat sensitive imaging or not, but pot growers use a lot of lights (not sure about heaters), which produce a stronger than normal heat signature. I'm guessing the fish tank heaters showed some sort of heat signature, but not near enough to be suspicious. It was just weird. I didn't see that one particular incident with the unmarked black 'copter, but I've seen one like it fly over on different occasions. Right now I only have some overwintering citrus plants in the greenhouse and some tomato starts for the spring... no heaters going at all. -- Maggie |

I'm guessing the fish tank heaters showed some sort of heat signature, but not near enough to be suspicious. It was just weird. I didn't see that one particular incident with the unmarked black 'copter, but I've seen one like it fly over on different occasions. If they did that to me I'd make an official complaint. What would we report? It was a black unmarked helicopter with cameras on the underside of it. There weren't any identifying number or call signs on it. Right now I only have some overwintering citrus plants in the greenhouse and some tomato starts for the spring... no heaters going at all. A greenhouse seems a little difficult to me. My neighbour has terrible trouble with it, its either too hot or too cold. Isn't it easier to grow the plants in your house? Even a conservatory with double glazing perhaps. But greenhouses here are single glazed. They get piping hot in summer and freezing cold in winter, not much use for plants. Ours isn't finished being built yet. Right now it's got all the framing done and most of the outer siding and insulation on it, and the roof has plywood and insulation, too. But the side where the windows go isn't finished, so the entire greenhouse is wrapped with plastic once, and then has a second plastic cover over the first one. The entrance has a double air gapped plastic entryway, so it stays pretty cozy in there even in cold temps. -- Maggie |

But the side where the windows go isn't finished, so the entire greenhouse is wrapped with plastic once, and then has a second plastic cover over the first one. The entrance has a double air gapped plastic entryway, so it stays pretty cozy in there even in cold temps. That sounds more substantial than what most people call a greenhouse here. Ours are all glass, all single glazing, no insulation at all: https://www.greenhousepeople.co.uk/c...s/greenhouses/ We had an uninsulated GH before and it just costs too much money to keep them to temp in the winter time. We have the windows in storage and will finish it maybe later this Spring or early Summer, hopefully. -- Maggie |

Right now it's got all the framing done and most of the outer siding and insulation on it, and the roof has plywood and insulation, too.

They allow them to grow things which would not grow outdoors as they need more heat. If I wanted to grow veggies all year round, I'd use a conservatory. Double glazing, part of the house, heated. -- We've all heard that a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the works of Shakespeare.

No, I'm trying to inject some common sense into the conversation. Foil will not work with/in a building using FLIR. Foil reflects heat, this is a basic law of physics. There will be no visible heat signature outside the building. A good search warrant will demonstrate probable cause for a search warrant using the homes electric bill. Covering windows in foil is not probable cause for a warrant. Neither is using a lot of electricity. I can think of two reasons to be using lots of electricity, both of which I've done. They both use computers running full blast 24/7. At one point I was using 6.5kW 24 hours a day. As for growing, what temperature do they need? I'm guessing not much more than room temperature. So how do you tell it's not just someone who likes a warm house? -- Testicle (n.), a humorous question on an exam. |
