that sounds about as cold as it gets here. I'm surprised you can't see steam, does the vented air outside smell at all like weed? I was thinking basement grow, but thought if I vented outside from the basement, it might smell more to those walking by vs if I grew in a spare bedroom upstairs and vented out a 2nd floor window.
In this day and age I almost worry more about other growers who know what to look for and may want to break in versus police since my grow would be so small.
The air I'm venting is just basement air run through the lights for my hoods so it comes out very warm and dry. It comes from outside the tent, through ducting and hoods then out a window. So no, it doesn't smell.
As for my odour control, I have a charcoal filter venting too, but that is pretty cool air compared to my vented lights...maybe 78f or 25c at most. It doesn't smell at all, which is on account of a good filter set up with the proper cfm fan. Mind you, my medical grow is quite small 6X7X7.5.
Don't worry about steam. You won't have a problem with that. Worry about smell. Dial that in and you're golden.
And ya... my main worry is about thugs who know what to look for. I just crowd that window with junk around it so people don't look twice...
