Why vent because I'm legal? The BOSS is the Mrs. If she wants no smell, she gets no smell.
I kind of let her do her thing and in return she allows me some range. I'd vent just to make her happy, ...like growing ganj and she could have a few of her straight friends over without them popping a vein.
Small, tight, contained, crisp, easy, silent, stealthy.
I only need about an oz a month. I go through less than a pound a year. This thing doesn't have to be a chore. I've got other options too, I guess. Even smaller options...closet sized might work too. I've got a bedroom in the basement that isn't used...large closet, large room.
I just renewed for another year last week. My buddy is going to begin to grow for me legally. His area might be in question. I've seen his basement grow site (a cleaned out pantry for canned goods). Area is about 7' wide, maybe 3' deep, and 6' high. He grew 1 plant about 20 years ago...budded up nice and paranoia set in and he quit after that grow. bwah. Now he's back like a bad Arnold movie. If his produces enough for the both of us, then I might not have to do squat. He hints that within' two weeks he'll be farmin'.
I guess next is I break down all the costs. How much to buy the tent, light, nutes, vent, blah blah.....versus...just getting a pound from a farmer and the deal he/she could offer. This isn't a money maker. This will be my shit, and any left over shit goes to a few buddies, and some to the ganja GODS.
