to be against my OH growing cannabis for personal use?

My partner wants to set up a growing tent with one plant in our loft for personal use. He says it will be safer than him having to buy weed from strangers.
I'm worried as we rent our house and potentially the landlord might come or a workman or someone. OH assures me he wouldn't put me and the kids at risk and that he'd lock the plant away.
I feel pushed into a corner. He says he will continue to smoke it until his dying days (he's 36), and that he'd be much less likely to get caught than if the police pulled his car over on the street. He only buys small quantities.
We live in France where drug laws are apparently tighter. It's a lose lose situation for me, as he thinks I'm worrying unnecessarily. I just don't want this going on in our home, but he's told me he'll continue to buy off the street and spend our money on it if I don't agree. Help!

Police helicopters have thermal imaging cameras so they can follow people on the ground when its dark. If they happened to fly over a property where the loft was lit up like a Christmas tree, they might get a bit suspicious.

An increasing number of recent psychiatric admissions are related to 'legal' versions. Which is frightening.

chubby, you sound like every sad, habitual cannabis user I have ever had the misfortune to come across

I don't smoke.

chaz not disagreeing at all - you clearly know more about it than me! :) - was just thinking that Even If the ops oh thought/argued that they were in a 'chopper free' zone (or also thought/argued that it sounded a bit Miami vice :) we don't get many choppers in our parts that's for sure) there are a lot of additional factors in the 'you'll get found out' debate they would be bound to be having that he couldn't argue with/pooh-pooh so easily.....

(And after saying I wasn't going to join the ethical/health side of the debate I would in fact like to Whole Heartedly agree with the other posters views on skunk...... Scarey Stuff - steer clear!!)
