I don't think I would notice it from the ground, how do they see it from the air. ;-) -- nm - CrankYanker Aug 24, 10:46 8
- I would guess it's a distinctive shade of green? -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 10:48 5
  - This would be one factor, for sure. Also, if they have access to thermal vision, I think the pot plants have a different heat signature than others. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 10:55 4
    - especially if lit. -- nm - CrankYanker Aug 24, 10:57
    - I just googled a bit (don't want to do more) and it seems some operations are in open areas, arranged in rows. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 10:57 2

        I just something about this in the last week. Most of the time the plants are interspersed amongst cornstalks and from the air they can see the change - zork Aug 24, 11:08
- they are grown in buckets mounted high in the trees -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 24, 10:48 1
  - I'm pretty certain that that method would be exceedingly rare. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 10:54
