hi, this is my first post and I realize that I may be doing this wrong,but feel urgency is prudent.I was growing agent orange on one 4x8 hydro table and querkle on the other. I am so bummed as it was coupkle days from onset of flush. I supercrop and therfor might help me recover something from my efforts.They came in and took my entire canopy and left me with mid to lower branches. i moved it to a friends and quickl;y took a couple 1000 w hps with me a 4x4 veg tray and some nuted waterfrom their table. Im hoping that they will be able to produce for a minute longer although they had lights on and all kinds of stress from being manhandled. the trichs are clear so ...what would you do??

Just put them back in 12/12 and the rest should be fine. Sorry about your troubles. It was probably someone that you knew. Usually is if they didn't take the lights and everything else. Looks like it's time to move locations.
 
Surprised they didn't take all the plants.
Had a junkie girl approach me on the street once trying to sell me some weed, she had these freshly pulled vegging plants about two foot high wrapped up in newspaper.
Obviously robbed them from someone.
But in your case I don't think junkies, as junkies would have taken the lot to sell.
Probably someone just wanted some bud to smoke, probably "friends" who didn't want to rip you off completely.
"Don't tell", the golden rule, is not just to protect you from leo but also from so called "friends".
 
Agreeing with Snype, I have an irking feeling that it may be someone you know not because they didn't take equipment and didn't harvest entire plants which are great points, didn't come across to me; but what first popped up in my head was when you said you were just days from flushing...people that know strike during coincidentally near perfect times..

Compile a list in your head of anyone that may have known in any way shape or form. Don't X people out from this list because of how long you've known them/amount of doubt... think of anyone that could have possibly known or told someone else.

Well, they knew enough to take the good bud and leave you with the roots, stems, and larf. Since you were so close to finish, the plants aren't going to significantly fill out what lower bud sites they left you with. If there's enough there to smoke, it might be worth your while to finish it up in the few weeks left. But what you see now is pretty much all that you'll end up with if you decide to bring them to maturity. Good luck with this.

WOW,THANKS ALL OF YOU!
I know it was my I T guy...99.9 percent sure. I just had him install two sets of cameras and funny how they went mysteriously right after word...not to mention my footage is basically un readable..totally cloaked or whatever. Im not savvy at all in that dept,so if i could clean up imaging on footage,id be on it. Ya the 12-12 thing back to veg...ive never done that but does it take a long time to revert them back..Ive heard and read that it does? Yes im moving as soon as I can afford to...i guess ill just move it into my house,Ilove growing to much to back off...so yes I think i will shoot next time if they have the balls to try me...it wouldnt go well for them. Thanks again all

Visit everyone you told. The smell of freshly cut herb will tell you all you need to know.

Get a new system or have someone change your wifi settings and passwords. problem is all electronics have a code that the pros know the passwords too, to bypass those of us that forget our passwords easily. At the least i'd get a different brand, if he doesn't know which system you use, he doesn't know how to muck up the system.

Probably a simple backyard game hunter camera would have gotten a decent picture.

What happens when you put young buds back to veg?
Maybe harvest what you have first? then re-veg? jpt

God, what's with you people. If you're gonna have something worked on, IT CAN'T LOOK LIKE A GROW ffs. My extreme condolences.

Not that you should trust anyone else, but if i saw a pm with the equipment i can give you keystrokes. Google would be a better guide so you don't have to trust ANYONE. and your passwords need to be SECURE. Besides, believe it or not, those things are 99% easy to setup.

^-- luckily this is not true. the point of security is to change these default passwords. If one has physical access there are easy way's to reset the hardware back to factory defaults, etc.

Example:
https://www.google.com/search?q=linksys+router+defualt+password
'linksys router default password'

Default user names:
Linksys BEFW11S4, WRT54G: admin
Linksys EtherFast Cable/DSL Ethernet routers: Administrator
Linksys Comcast routers: comcast

Default passwords:
Linksys BEFW11S4: [none]
Linksys Comcast routers: 1234
All other Linksys routers: admin

So, one finds the reset button (indented, needs a sharp pokey) holds it down for a few seconds, and vua la you have access to just about any linksys. And it's really not that much better for netgear, dlink and so forth.

Now i know i've been talking about wifi routers, but this applies to most other pieces of hardware (even software at times) you will purchase.

If you have a little trouble googling things, http://www.googleguide.com/ will become your best friend - teaches you the art of finding. gl.

posted this before but..
when shit like this happens tell no one and wait
most of these sociopaths live to feel others misery
then when one of your "friends" starts discussing your problem there you go you got your guy or gal,fun time LOL

also its been my experience that rips are often followed by visits from the police
if it were me I would take at least a year off from growing and would never even think of growing at that address again

i made same mistake. but with a partner wen i first started this like 10 years ago.. haha. was a bad mistake. and lost alot of money and buds because of it. will never show anyone. the

Here's how I'd roll with it.
In my experience, most true scumbags like to brag, and show off their loot. Unless they are moving it wholesale, they are going to be sackin' it out for max profit.
If it were me, in my situation, I'd have one of my good friends (I have a couple, not many), make some inquiries to the people you suspect. He plays hard up, out of weed, and can't score. "Can ya hook me up?"
If he scores a sack of your stuff, well. That's when the fun begins! :)
Maybe the culprit gets caught with a thumb drive of some "short pornography", that he shouldn't have, and/or a stolen firearm, with some of Walt and Jesse's finest, that magically appeared in his car, one dark night.....
Woe to you, muthufuggas.
I hope this works out for. I fear it more than cops. But I'd fear being the punk that stole it more :)
Regards.

I would doubt if the cops get called in as there is video and the cops may be able to use it ,and as far as growing again clean things up put some plants under a light like you did ,and try to finish up and start more seed s again ,sorry to here what has happened to you ,get ride of the it guy asap but don't make it look vindictive ,or he may get the cops involved in retaliation ,and get a gun ,maybe ask him to go with you when you buy it ,just him knowing you have one is enough ,or barrow one from a friend and have them bring it buy while he is there or can see it or go shooting with you for practice ,fyi point at the nuts and pull twice ,

what I would do is find out who the asshole was that screwed me over, and if they did it accidentally by talking to much or was in on it. that's all I can say. need to keep a lower profile now. you screwed up somewhere most likely prob not a random act. good luck
