Pot Growers Busted Because Heat From Grow Lamps Melted Snow On Their Roof

Before launching a successful criminal enterprise, you need to put a lot of thought into every aspect of the operation. The best ones always do.

Gus Fring had an entire business empire built just to safely deal his meth. Walter White covered all his tracks exceptionally well. (Sorry. The only things I know about drugs are from Breaking Bad.)

And you see, it’s always the little things, the most minute details that bring down entire syndicates. Had Heisenberg never left a book in the bathroom, he might still be dealing drugs today.

You can’t really fault these Dutch pot growers for not realizing that the heat from their grow lamps would melt the snow on their roof, leaving them as the only house on their block that looked the way it did. No one had that kind of foresight.

That translation reads “Look in your district to the rooftops. No snow? Possible #hennepkwekerij. Call 0900-8844 or anonymous 0800-7000. ^ ps”

I assume hennepkwekerij means massive weed growing operation, because that’s just what police found when they raided the house.

So, the next time you want to start growing drugs, think of EVERYTHING.
