Their still looking for big grows so you could still get your door kicked in and plants took but no charge brought. They was a 50 plant grow bust near me yesterday could of easily been a few plant the police wouldn't know how many is there till they kick your door in.

would be epic if in the U.K we could eventually have a much more open clone trading market like in the US where you can pick up elite clones very easily

we would no longer have to deal with the streets being flooded with cheese, amnesia and lemon

I can see this happening everywhere.
The reason it's happening is the cost,once the next round of cuts hits,the raiding,testing and court costs involved will become too expensive and something will have to give.

Redcar rugby club 1st aug
Check teesside cannabis club for details

I almost fancied a look down to this, but alcohol free event blazoned all over anything I can find towards info is a touch off putting, shame.

I don't partake, I don't smoke but by Christ I can sink some bevvies on a weekend.

Any threads in the UK forum about experiences with police and raids, our rights and the like and a good ole discussion about it???

If not, I think we should start one.

Got busted - lost mums and seedlings...

Couple of mothers saved off-site!

Arrested, street bailed and interviewed a few days later -charge was possession - got a caution! There are a number of questions surrounding the actions of the police that I have suspicion about, and whether they complied with the law.

Money is tight these days for UK Police, and the Police can't really see much harm in cannabis, so in many areas are not concentrating on taking small growers down because it causes much more harm and cost than anything good busting peaceful cannabis enthusiasts...

I have been around cannabis users all of my adult life, and the vast majority are just not interested in getting involved in real crimes that involve violence/theft etc that create victims, so are not criminally minded, and the Police realize this in the UK.

get in touch with durham and/or teeside cannabis clubs, you can find them on facebook, im sure the lads will help you set one up.


I called in to one of these events as a genuine "passing member of the public" so to speak one weekend. I meandered long enough to know instantly that distance was the best thing to put between us.

Maybe Planet expo will relocate next year, easing the burden on the social calendar.

Hey S2! Once you get off that M25 "Roundabout" lol you just hang a right and keep driving until you run out of surrounding concrete and street lights, Gods garden will reveal itself :) haha

Welcome any time mate:tiphat:

what event did you go to and why dont you like them mate? they both been on the go a good few years and no bother has come to them at all


Woa ah never said I didn't like them.

Im coming on 50 afore long. I dont need to make friends with a bunch of modern day wolfie smiths. I am too busy, Ive got life nd shit to get on with. As much as Id like to "Help" with the canna clubs motto of helping those in need, which I fully agree with, via donating trim or whatever etc etc you know what I mean. I do not have the spare 15 years or so to build any type of trust with anyone or anything to be able to do so. I dont want to be known, but I would have to be to be able to start helping, does that make sense?

Il help the few I can around me.

And before anyone kicks off, I am fully supportive of all and any type of Wolfie Smith finger up the system campaign and I fully back them. Power to the people!
