    Default Small scale grow (1 plant) will smell be bad?

    Hey all

    Due to some unfortunate circumstances (don't want to bore you with them) me and my girlfriend have been forced to move back to my mums for roughly a year or so (first time being at home since I'm
    18, now 25)

    Anyway, I'm tired of always getting sub par bud or having to pay an extreme premium for something other than amnesia. (I know there must be plenty of good bud with a good variety out there, I'm just yet to meet someone that can provide me with it)

    In no way am I talking a large scale grow. Will literally only be 1 plant in a smallish grow tent under one light, purely for personal consumption and once one plant is done my target is to start another.

    I have a sizeable walk in wardrobe at my mums place in my room, certainly big enough to fit a small scale grow tent and grow one plant in there. My main concern is if she finds it as she won't be happy. Will one plant smell that bad? I know when drying it could smell a bit, but I'm sure once I have cut it down and harvested I can arrange for it to be dried at a friends house.

    Has anyone else had any experience doing a small scale grow under such conditions? And can anyone recommend any specific equipment ?

    Thanks in advance

    Ok well , Northern lights is perfect for beginners . Heavy yeilds with topping and lst , and smells are minimum .

    This plant is unkillable , she was my 2 liter entry and was treated like a football and is still kicking and growing solid bud . Nice balanced relaxed high .

    Cant go wrong with N.L .

    Thank you for your reply. I think I've had northern lights once a few years ago in dam, can't remember it though haha! So do you think I would be able to grow one northern lights without it being detected by anyone else in the house?

    I think it would be difficult to avoid smell entirely without any sort of extraction. Ripe bud stinks. If you can create negative pressure within your walk in wardrobe then you could avoid smell. You would have to install a small extractor fan somehow.

    No , you will need venting of some sort . You can get a cheap extractor blower and carbon filter for 125$ 75£ roughly

    I urge you to respect your mothers house and not grow without her permission. Especially after her letting you move back in and opened her door to your girlfriend.

    But it will stink, it will be noisy and your poor mum's leccy bill will go up.

    Get a fan and filter, You cant go without it. I too thought i could get away with it and for a couple weeks you can, but it WILL smell and WILL smell a hell of a lot when flower kicks in. I wasted money the first time by buying a cheap filter. Make sure you get a good filter like the rhino. Its fuck all money seeing as it will stop you getting raided and caught by police or someone who thinks you're doing a bigger grow. Your mum should be the last person to worry about smelling it tbh.

    Also when you're trimming your bud at the end the smell is overwhelming and can easily stink out multiple rooms. So unless you're doing that in your tent with the zip closed she will smell it. If she doesn't want you to do it and doesn't know you're doing it then don't.

    Didnt realise that it was in your mother property, just dont. Its not your property and you should respect your mothers rules. Im 22 and wouldnt dare grow in anyones property without there permission. Plus it could make your personal circumstances worse than they already are. My advice would be to get your self to the local housing athority im sure if your working youll be able to get a property pretty quick alot of them have schemes in places for working people. Thats what i did when i was 18 anyways and i have not paid a penny to a dealer since. Good luck, stay safe and dont take risks.
