Hi I need help with a indoor grow, A/C and no exhaust.

I already have a fan like that inside the tent, thats what the carbon filter is attached too, along with the hose. I don't see how 2 of those could help me.

Leave the one in your tent where it is.

You'd buy another one to blow the hot air out of your room. Through the window

Call around about renting a house . They might be into you growing for a cut or extra rent. Doesn't hurt to ask if yer legal haha

As stated at first, thats not an option, if I wanted to do that, then it would be just like my setup at my previous place and I wouldn't need any help. I could use the fan thats in the tent and vent that to the window, problem is that would look odd in my area.. no way to disguise that everything has to be uniform.

Fans are used for more than just carbon scrubbers lol

I understand that, but odor was a bigger concern, if heat is coming out of that room into the rest of the apartment, I can just cool the rest of the apartment down, I just dont want the smell to get out of control, and wanted to keep it contained (the heat also) in that one room.
 
If your only blowing into a stinky room...... The stink will find its way into your building. Through cracks and vents . It's only a matter of time

Filters... remember for a sec, I've done this before.. I know how to contain the smell to one room. There are no vents going to the next apartment.
 
I get the point though.. I guess I better look for a better place to reside.. So the A/C will not exhaust the air out the apartment is what you are saying? It only has to be vented while the light is on. When the light is off I can use a dehumidifier to control humidity.

Last time I'm going to say it man. You blow into a room the air needs to go somewhere.

The ac won't circulate your air back outside.

Why do you think everyone has exhausts.

Even you had one on your last grow.

I had a 2x3x4 box w a 600w led in the back of my walk in closet. Biggest problem was during lights on I had to have the closet door open and the box door open. Had to be there every day at lights off to close it up. I think 95% of my heat problems was from weak ass exhaust fans. And I didn’t think it out too we’ll designing the box. I have a 2x4x5. same light. in the same closet w an actual 6” inline exhaust and I leave the tent zipped up all the time now. In the summer I just leave the closet door open and use a/c from the adjoining room to cool the closet. In the winter my closet dips down to the low 60s and keeps he box about 68-75 during lights on. I just keep my closet door open when lights are on and closed when off. Works 100%

Also I live in a house and my neighbors are lovely so I don’t worry abt smell at all. I enjoy it actually.

Yes. I'd be too paranoid to grow in a sketchy location haha

Exhaust is very important
