Hah! I was traveling to Florida when I was 18 and my aunt gave me a bag of 5 roses flower wrapped in brown tape (like they don't have flower in Florida, LOL) to bring to her sister. Border security noticed it but didn't even ask.

Good lesson to all drug smugglers, don't hide your stash lol

Wanted mangroves some time ago so I found seller on eBay from Hawaii. It was like $100 for 80 pods. I asked about issues shipping to Canada and he said no problem, they are seed pods not flowers or plants.

I ordered and a week later I received a call from border services food/plant inspection in Vancouver telling me these are a no go into Canada without the proper paperwork etc.etc. Numerous calls and Fax correspondence later I was told they will ship them back to the seller at my expense or throw them in the trash.

Talked to the seller and he said trash them, and he refunded my money.

The next day the doorbell rings and its Canada post with a parcel. 80 Mangroves.

Yes I did pay for them.

I think you would have been fine if you hadn't put the hoody on. A hoody instantly makes you look suspicious. A hoody plus chemicals and a mask, that's asking for Popo trouble 'fo shizzle.

Nah, that's just regular day gear!

Peeps wear this all day long and don't get the shake down

Now, if you have a 'vent' sticking out of your reef house, with some smoke and shniznit, then maybe you 'may' get the popo show up
Or your could just leave your curtains open all night long while you run your MHs

Either way, they will find you

You are absolutely right about that. I swear in the winter time there are police helicopters constantly hovering over my house. I'm sure they are pointing their heat gun at my house which I'm sure lights up like a bonfire on their scanner compared to everyone else's house around me. 1000 watts of Metal halides for the win!
