    Also, a question I guess best know to law enforcement officers, do people think old 'customers' are likely to turn up on the doorstep. I have a vague understanding (professionally!) that the 'farm' is used as a seperate supply then the drugs are prepared and sold elsewhere. I would be pretty worried if lots of people are turning up on my doorstep trying to buy.

    Would this worry other buyers and if so why?

    You may not get customers coming round but instead burglars. We have one former cannabis farm on our ground which has been burgled 3 times by gangs thinking cannabis was still there. According to my colleagues its common.
