Okay guys. First post, not my first time growing. Let's see how this goes. I'll probably catch some flak for this post but, here goes:
My friend (and his fiance) and I are signing a lease to a 3 bedroom duplex. Yes, I realize that rentals are a bit more risky. But there are precautions that can be taken, and I intend to take every single one of them.
My friend wants to learn to grow. I've gotten about 10 successful harvests under my belt, only 3 of them are indoor, but regardless I feel qualified enough to help him get started. I believe that he is trustworthy, and I've already made is VERY clear that if I even SUSPECT that he's mentioned the grow to someone else, I'm pulling the plug. I truly believe he's every bit as serious about security as I am, this is the ONLY reason I'm willing to grow with another person.
Anyway, let's get to it. The extra bedroom is approximately 8'x8'. There is one window in the room. Now the decision that I am trying to make is this:
Do we go balls out and basically use the whole room?
Do we stuff some grow tents/cabs in the room instead?
Or do we just stick to closets?
Personally, I'm leaning towards the tents/cabs. I think that's far more realistic, and it wouldn't be hard to build a large cab or three that looks like an armoire. But I'd like to hear some feedback. I know the whole room would be easier to ventilate (keep cool) than a cab with HID lighting in it. However, as we're signing a lease and don't own the place, modifcations to run the ventilation to the attic or whatever just aren't going to happen.
I was thinking of purchasing grow tents and some old junk photography shit and throw all of that in the extra bedroom and just claim to be a photography enthusiast. The grow tents could easily be dark rooms for photo development....
But like I said. Feedback?
