I only have 3 plants in the closet now, and really only 2 are doing anything, the 3rd i used as a pruning experiment to learn how not to do it, hah.
im not too terribly worried about getting busted with 2 plants. And since i dont trust customs or really any seedbank, im stuck with making clones off of bagseed...since i have no way of getting clones.
I say go ahead and cut holes in the ceilings of closets(in a rental).
Just make sure they're in the corner that is right above to you looking in. After you cut the holes, save the circle cut out of sheetrock to use as patchwork.
How much was your deposit? I promise if you patch it up nicely, they WILL NOT notice the patched up work.
But hey, that's what I would do, not saying you are willing...just advice!
cutting the ceiling really wont get me anywhere, except into the roof area where im not sure who is up and how often. I know they will notice the hole unless they are straight up blind...the room isnt but a couple years old.
id need to cut a hole in the closet doors, or the wall to get a benefit. Was thinking about just getting a hydrohut, but it doesnt seem worth the stealth tradeoff.
How much are doors like the one you have in your place? 50-100$ at Home Depot?
If you don't want to cut holes, get a Hydro Hut. Change the door knobs on whatever bedroom you have it in to some locks, and work from there.
If "they" come into your Apt. to do an inspection, they're not going to bust your bedroom door down, just cause it's locked.\
Have a reason why they can hear "humming" comming from behind the locked bedroom door. It's really none of their business.
I grew in a rented house before. It was a double two story. Granted, my landloard would never come into my place, but his mother-in-law lived below me, and she complained about everything I did....so the chances of him coming in were always there. I even had a 5 gallon water bottle leak in my kitchen, which started to drain in her place. He came in, found the problem, and cleaned it up. He called me later to tell me what happened.
I had a lock on my bedroom door, and a lock to the closet which had my grow....I don't think he would have went through all of that to "see" what might have been going on....
Hmmm, every apt i had in an apt complex even a garage apt i had once had a small attic access door in the ceiling of the closet. It really wasn't even a door just a piece of wood you pushed up to open the opening. got one of those? One complex i lived at on the second floor had the aforementioned access and get this....i could get in the attic and access every apt through their access. now that is truly messed up. I'm not a dishonest person and NEVER did that but you can bet your ass my access was screwed shut by me after seeing that
the dilemma continues.... I have a loft..so no bedroom door...
just doubled checked the top of the closet, and its a finished ceiling even in the closet
and id consider cutting holes in doors, but the closet doors are the sliding ones...and i have bad karma with these doors, I can NEVER EVER put them back in once i yank em out, lol.
if i get a tent, it would almost have to be in the open upstairs..but i could try to cover it up...argh
I guess get a tent, and put some folded blankets on top, along with some pillows...maybe put a stuffed animal up there too.....tell everyone it's an "extra clothes closet"....they sort of look like them too.
Those buds are looking juicy. With 24 ladies in there you are sure to have an impressive yield. How loud is your HH when you have your fan running and lights on? How noticable is it from different distances away? I just got my 4" vortex and that thing will move some air. Im most likely going to just connect up a carbon scrubber than air cool my light. Thanks for your pics and input
I have two running in the same room, and it's not LOUD but you can hear them running. A constant hum. Not enough to bother me down the hall in the TV room but enough to where I wouldn't want to sleep in there.
The are good benefits for air-cooling your light and if you have the hood and fixtures why not, look how close I can keep that glass to the canopy, and it's still pushing out a CAN filter on the outside... one vortex.
14 days into flowering tonight and I'm gonna throw the HPS in...
