I picture this android saying something along the lines of, "People bitching about price = people who are worried about stacking up their vault, haven't grown anything out. People more then happy to pay full price but happy to get any little bit off = people who have actually grown gps gear."

No I have never heard of it happening. But I had read somewhere on IC one time that people were getting location tags from photos, from people that were running large grows. Supposedly sophisticated thieves. They would locate the grow and steal the crop. Now how much truth this holds, I am unsure. But I can definitely see it being possible.
Maybe for me its not so much worrying about being busted, as it is my natural instinct of feeling that I have to be on the DL and use paranoia as a tool for saftey. Being born into and raised in an outlaw state really does do these things to your mind, always puts you on high alert. I have seen seen some huge busts take place near and around me and till this day they are still placing up wireless cameras on peoples guerilla plots. A friend of mine that lives in the neighboring county got raided last month, his discovery papers were haunting as it plainly stated the probable cause for search was due to aerial surveillance (drones) capturing illegal activity going on at his home. They knew where he hid his stash, inside of a couple decoy cinder block piers beneath the building and had leads on others by capturing license plate numbers on the backs of vehicles. Pretty fucked up if you ask me. And this is happening often here in the bluegrass state. However, he was dealing more than just a little weed.
Point is, I wouldn't worry about posting a few photos of a small grow. But if you are running along the lines of a commercial crop, I personally would not recommend uploading the evidence. You never know what could happen and would likely feel better if you didn't.
It was at least a couple of years before I ever posted a photo of one ssingle plant. But then I got in the hang of it and now I don't mind posting several (definitely over the felony limit) and I have been fine for the past 5 years.

You are just full of assumptions, aren't you?

One of my orders shipped on the 12th and is still in limbo.
Average delivery time is usually 3-4 days.

Gotta go with a reputable company like Schwab, Fidelity, etc.
"Guido the money guy" may be cheaper, but you get what you pay for...

I've been running Gu's gear since he started, Cookies N Chem is one of the stronger IMHO

If I ran a large illegal grow op, I wouldn't post at all on RIU.
It's MUCH more hazardous in states that do not allow marijuana at all -- like Utah.
It's also wise to never sell ounces, because it's a felony to possess 20+ grams of a schedule 1 controlled substance. (They treat it like meth)
If one of your customers bought an ounce and got caught with it (felony), the police would definitely try to cut a deal for info about the source.

In many red states, LEO is not concerned with small growers at all. These guys barely have time to follow-up on break-ins, never mind chase down a 4 light grower that pays his taxes and has no criminal record. You need to take a break from the keyboard and go outside.

More assumptions.
Maybe you should pay more attention to what's going on around you.

My grows are illegal regardless wether they are small or large. I run rather large guerilla grows but I am particular with my photos during that time. I sure won't be throwing up over 99 plants at one given time, even if I have over 600.
If they are gonna come take me, I will go down with pride. I've been there before, but this is my one true love besides the wife and kids.... Oh, and the dog... I love him sometimes.
This year I am going bigger than ever focusing directly on large plants only. Starting my outdoor crop seeds in less than 2 weeks so I am definitely going to have some trees this year.
I'm looking more on the 2 lb a plant side of things with lower plant numbers this year compared to the previous 3 years where I have grown anywhere from 300 to 600 plus plants, all averaging around 8 oz per plant.
Before I got carried away with numbers I done much better doing larger plants, 3 to 4 plants per plot finishing around 8 to 12 foot tall and structured wide and heavy, bushy trees handing me around a pound and a half each.
I don't water my plants in the bush and still get superb results, as long as the area is chosen correctly and the ground is amended right, its easy to pull over a lb per plant, in Kentucky it is anyway... We have lots of rain here usually that does more than enough for the plants. I still tend to them though, once per week and give feeding every now and then but where I grow, there is no hauling water not even on ATVs because the land is flat out inaccessible by vehicle or atv.
I have a new area this year to grow. One of the most secluded areas I know of around here and there is never any hunters or ginseng diggers in this particular place either. I have scoped it out for the last couple of years and have had numerous trail cams documenting surveillance on it as well. I watch it like a hawk and have finally pulled the trigger. Reason I haven't grabbed it sooner is because I needed to gather all of the possible intel I possibly could on the location cause I'm going to turn the area into my main production grounds so I needed to be absolutely positive that it was nearly completely untouched by man. Don't get me wrong, I know there is the possibility of a passer by but highly unlikely.
The area is an ex farm land that has started growing up and had been logged off around 5 years ago, parts of it anyway and some has been untouched and has this beautiful ancient feel to it... Very nice place to grow and has some of the most fertile soil I have ever seen in my entire life. There are streams, springs and creeks of fresh water from untouched ancient caves all over the place on this spot. I even know and visit one cave there often where there are actually 2 huge large mounds of guano that looks as if it has never been touched. I plan on using that as well... I know the correct way to take the safety precautions for wild guano and have the hazmat suit and respirators, everything I need.
This is going to be an interesting year for sure. And hardly any amendments will be needed to grow here. Other than the basic food and microbe supply, the soil is incredibly fertile.
