Sealing off a "Gorilla" 5'x5'x7'11" with two plants, will it work?

I'm superscared my neighbour will know, I am planning to get an 8" AC Infinity fan and filter and I don't dare to vent air outside because the smell..
The fan will be running on 60-70% and there will be two "Waterfarms" and an oscillating fan.
Only time the air will be exchanged is when I enter and leave the tent.

I live right under my neighbour so the fan will be running on low, I hope that since I'm constantly scrubbing inside there won't be any
airleaks except from when I let any in.
Oh, and the lights aren't strong, most likely 2X HLG Saber 100's.
Putting a couple of "Ona" boxes outside and getting some zipperglue (%!#) and hoping that not exhausting will lead me into a lot of trouble.

A heated oil vaporizer. The girly things that use oils r beads. Use peppermint or spearmint oils. Cinnamon oil will terrorize you. Don't need to run long. Very powerful and effective. Cheap to boot.

what region do you live in. biggest question will be your temps if you can get away without venting outside due to heat issues. will you be able to keep the room temperature around 75 so that inside then tent its in the low 80s? could you exhaust the hot air into another room of your apartment?

my only concern is running a waterfarm you might need to get rid of humidity which might be hard if you are just pushing it back into your room. not sure about this someone else probably knows better. might be simpler with a soil grow.

I doubt you will smell anything outside the tent. the AC infinity filters are no joke.

I have an AC Infinity 6" fan and filter in my 4x5 closet. filter -> fan -> outside. before I added the filter you could smell my grow a block away. now I can stand right under my vent and smell nothing. I have another 4" fan venting 2 2x3 tents (using a y splitter) and that runs into a filter that sits between the 2 tents. in my bedroom. both are in full bloom banging funk inside right now. I cant smell anything at all with them zipped shut.

if you also use the essential oils like @MICHI-CAN suggested i think you will be totally fine.

6" infinity or not you release the scent everytime you open the tent. And carry the scent on you if in contact with the plants. And come late flower, not to mention harvest. Grow exhaust doesn't cut it. The oils covered my butt in an apartment for the entire time. xxl canisters and 6" fans only good if I never opened the tent. LOL. High wattage, hot to the touch, Himalayan salt lamps kill odors really well in small spaces also.

I miss read your original post, thought you were just going to place the filter in the tent with no venting.

All good. I miss something besides the missing something everytime. Filters are really effective. But you have to open the tent. Then you need back up. The oil thing is obnoxious until you get a clue. But works and you are always minty fresh. Win win. Peace and humor.
