GROW SHOWS NOT HARMFUL IF DONE RIGHT

Editor:

I guess everyone has read the "grow op" propaganda included with their last 
hydro bill.

Those of us who know call them "grow shows." Not all shows are house 
damaging; if done properly there is no damage. Friends of mine who have 
done some shows in the past were proud of the fact that they always got 
their damage deposits returned. There are idiots doing shows who don't care 
(or don't have enough knowledge) and they can do extensive damage to a house.

If done properly there should be no damage. These are not get rich quick 
rooms. They are so that people do not have to pay big dollars to criminals 
who possibly spray plants with pesticides and carcinogens.

Grow rooms could be a benefit to people afflicted with Seasonal Affective 
Disorder (too much rain in the winter). You don't have to grow pot in a 
"grow room." You can grow whatever you want. Anyone can benefit from the 
technology without being a criminal and without household damage.
