what is the best way to go when your renting apartments? grow tent? vertical grow unit? growbox? i started this post do to the fact that some people dont have the option of setting up in a house! and apartment growing consists of a more cautious approach. so please advise with knowlegable reasponses.
First and foremost, check your lease agreement. A lot of them have clauses where the management can go into your apartment at anytime in order to do maintenance.
yes i now this, private leases are the way to go. you want to stay away from apartments that cater to the younger crowed!
Well I'm growing in my 1 bedroom in the storage closet. However, I'm only growing two plants and the most I might do is 8. The maintenance here used to come in whenever they wanted but pretty sure they don't do that anymore under the new management. I think the best way to go is to schedule lights out during the work day so if they do happen to come in, they won't be suspicious unless there's a strong odor.
Regardless of the price of the power bill, that is a huge operation to be doing in an apartment building. I would not advise to use try to grow that much in an apartment. How much are you trying to produce?
im told i can get a pound n a half a light with this og kush. a single guy in a whole house a lil heat score tho wouldnt you say?
i've been speculating about just a 1 lighter=pound n a half roughly. all depending on the strain obviously.
Your grow would need to be completely stealthy in an apartment, for the obvious security issues. Landloard and/or management can always access your apartment, usually if they are nice they'll call ahead, but it doesn't always work like that. I would think some kind of disguised grow tent would work. Maybe a grow tent inside a closet with ventilation out the back/top. Ideally, your grow tent would be inside something with a lock that nobody but you has the key for. That way there's no way they could stumble on it while in the apartment for a legitimate reason. That much lighting would be insane for a tent... If you could just use a whole room... that's another story. I think your goals for weight are a little high for a stealthy grow. But I do love to see the envelope get pushed, so post results if you go through with anything.
what about a grow ten that fits inside a bedroom. the tent being almost the same size as the room? and put a lock on the bedroom door? im intrested in grow tents mostly because they seem easy to put up and take down as to bringing wood into an apt.
Just for a precaution, use the bedroom without the circuit box. The two bedrooms at the complex I live at have one room which has the box in it, the maintenance had to access everyone's at one point, for something.
so true, thanks for the advice. i created this post for people and myself wanting info on possible apt setups thanks.
if i were to grow 1-2 plants in an appartment...what would be the best kind of setup/what strain should be grown
for a set up that small any strain would pretty much work, remember there are strains like haze that are very picky on there surroundings. regardless 2 plants wont even produce much smell if any, if your set up is right. easy strains are as follows: -juicy fruit -jamaican -romulan is an awsome strain for first timers thats just to give u a sense
You shouldn't grow that much in an apartment. Look at rental homes. If you did decide to grow there I would get one of those big wood cabinets and use a filter. I'd change the locks too.
