In that case, the perpetrators should be happy to cooperate in eliminating the 
interference, once they become aware that their operation is attracting 
attention over a wide area.

Most potheads with small operations in residential neighbourhoods are not 
mobsters or violent murderous criminals; they just want to do their thing and 
be left alone. Carefully pproach 
them in a non-threatening manner once you determine for sure that the 
interference is coming from their house, and let them know "something" on their 
premises is causing widespread
radio interference that is easily traceable to their QTH. Remain 
non-judgemental and make no mention of grow lights or suspected illegal 
activity, but display serious concern over 
the radio interference they are causing.

Grow lights are increasing becoming an RFI problem. We in the amateur community 
have the upper hand as long as we are diplomatic while this activity remains 
illegal. Let's exploit 
this to the fullest.
