 Should I Abort My Grow-Op !?!?!?!?!?!?

Hey guys, I live in a country in central america and I have 4 x 1-foot tall plants in my backyard and today the choppers went by 3 times over my house! They flew quite low and slow, but didnt stop, I think they might have spotted the plants! I won't put them outside for at least a couple of weeks and keep growing them indoors with cfls. What should I do?! should I expect a sudden raid? should I throw them away, and throw my personal stash away?! please help!

My mentality? If in doubt, throw 'em out.
It's saved my ass on 2 very serious occasions.

If what I hear about law enforcement being able to do pretty much what ever they want in the Central American Countries and the way they don't play around there I wouldn't chance it for if what I remember are some quite small plants.

Well, this is how it happened... I heard a chopper coming so I waited for it to go through, choppers go by all the time but this blue and white one flew by pretty close. I went outside as it flew away and turned. According to my calculations the chopper didn't see them from the trajectory they went through. I moved them closer to the wall (which makes them harder to see) as quick as I could and then seconds latter it passed by with about the same trajectory. Given that the chopper was going round like that I took them and brought them indoors, as I heard it go round the neighboorhood, then it passed a few secs latter but the plants were long gone. So basically they either saw them and then saw they were moved, or didnt see them at all. I think if they were patrolling the plants another chopper had already seen them.
I live in Guatemala, and the president is, strangely, talking about legalizing drugs... I really have never heard of anyone being busted, however I dont know about too many people growing.... I think cultivation means a few years in prison but who knows how the laws work...
Im thinking of continuing the grow indoors and just putting some identical pots with nothing but dirt on them where I always place the plants. That way they might think they scared me off...

Ingteresting. We get fly overs late in the season.
If you have just a few plants they usually wont bother. If they spot them they will circle around a few times then the troups cone right away. If no one is around theyll just pull them. If its a real bigpatch they may stake it outbut i havent heard of that happening in years.
