Alright people, a friend of mine got himself a 60cm by 60cm by 160cm high grow tent, he has to grow it in his room, the others in the house are fine with it, but his room has a really obvious big window opening up the view of his room to a cul de sac of closely knit houses. He wants to know if anyone has any clever suggestions in how to hide it or disguise a big black tent besides using a wardrobe? There's a bong in it if I can get him a good suggestion, so lend a helping hand and i'll be in your debt for the rest of the night and probably a few hazy hours in the morning As a bonus he was also asking if there were any suggestions for quieting his extraction system a tad because its a semi detached house and his room is opposite the adjoining house. Cheers in advance
Put up mini blinds, and or curtains. Then put a panda film (white side on the grow side, black toward the window side) As long as you have curtains and such in the window, it will just look like the lights are out in the room, and the curtain is closed. If you're clever, you can fashion an intake/exhaust in the window, too, and mask it with curtains or mini blinds.

Sorry I've only just seen this, it looks like a really good idea actually, I just think, being the type of neighbourhood it is, people will be suspicious of the newly mirrored glass and the council owned property might get inspected for it
Buy a fan that's a bit bigger than you need, and run a speed control on it. You might be amazed how quiet those blowers are when you dial the RPM's down a little bit.
