You could just grow plants for personal use and that wouldn't involve any organised crime

I live with housemates who don't object to me smoking but would absolutely object to me growing in the house. I know because I asked. Growing is a bigger crime than smoking

I’m not sure it is you know. I think you can quite easily argue personal amounts for growth. Just don’t grow more than a couple of plants and you’ll be grand.

Huh, I'll look into it a lil more then. Not sure how much that would convince my housemates though, gotta get my own place eventually
