Chris,
I don't think you quite know where I'm coming from. My publisher
personally knows the owner of Pyraponic Industries and we also know Jorge
Cervantes, Ed Rosenthal and all those other names sysnonymous with dope
cultivation. I am certainly not condemning that in the least; for God's
sakes I'm also the editor of The Best of Sinsemilla Tips.
It was actually in our former magazine, Sinsemilla Tips, where
dozens of letters to the editor were printed disclaiming the Phototron.
It was hard-core marijuana growers who saw it as a complete scam. The
government is working with all kinds of grow chambers and hydroponic
systems, even throughout Green Merchant.
And by the way, the DEA was looking for power increases for pot
growers not crack. It's a lot easier for them to bust pot growers than
crack users because the former are not usually dangerous. Plus, the
amount of power it takes to make crack is not significant enough to be
detectable.
