Portable Smell-Proof Greenhouse(how to grow pot out in the open)

  1. This is an idea I thought of that I think alot GC'ers would really like. You shouldn't have to spend no more than 30-50 dollars on it and if your really good you might be able to find all the materials at your house and it'll cost you nothing.

    This would work best if you made it sog and it's really convenient for an outdoors sog. If your looking to grow 10 foot monsters then this isn't for you. But if your looking for something small for personal smoke then this is perfect.

    This is also perfect for those who live in colder climates because the greenhouse affect will give the plants extra warmth.

    This is also perfect for people who live with their parents and only live around small shitty city woods. So your only option for growing a personal stash is to be able to hide it out in the open.

    What you'll need is:
    3 gallon pot
    See Through plastic
    4-6 wooden stakes(The height of the stakes depends on the height of the plant.)
    Tape
    Tarp
    A computer fan
    Rechargeable Batteries
    Battery holders
    A water proof box
    Activated carbon
    A small box

    Step 1
    You take the pot and fill it with the soil of your liking.
    Step 2
    Take the wooden stakes and apply it to the pot however you like. I would screw mine to the sides of the pot.
    Step 3
    Then you wrap the plastic around the wooden tarps. Now your plants have a personal greenhouse.
    Step 3
    Put a hole near the bottom of the greenhouse and attach the computer fan in the hole. Make sure its an exhaust fan.
    Step 4
    Then you take a small box or container. Make sure it has two ends. Make sure one of the ends is open ended and the other end is closed. Punch multiple holes into the closed end. Then place activated carbon inside the box. Tape some fibrous clothing onto the open ended side of the box. Now put the box onto the opening where the fan is. Tape the box to the side of the greenhouse so no smell can escape out the sides.
    Step 5
    You can make another hole a passive intake or you can place another computer fan there as an active intake if you have enough batteries to run 2 fans.
    Step 6
    Place all the batteries into the holders and connect all the battery holders to the fans. and watch your out in the open stealth grow come to life.
    Step 7
    Place all electronics inside a water proof box because your plants can't afford to have your ventilation to die because of rain.

    If your growing outside, to make plants flower early so the plant can actually fit inside the small greenhouse you'll need to put a tarp over it after the plant had it's 12 hours of sunlight. You'll have to do this at the same time everyday and in about a week or 2 the plant will start to flower. I don't know how long you'll have to do this but I do know if you stop putting the tarp up too soon the plant will revert back to it's vegetative state and you might overstress it into a hermie. But I know if you stop putting the tarp 1 or two weeks before harvest the plant won't revert back.
     
  2. in the growing season, why do u need a greenhouse?

    it gets pretty darn hot on a sunny day under plastic. so if u would attempt this, u would need CONSTANT fresh air. so if its constant air, why even have the plastic at all. which brings me again to the first question, why do u need a green house in the growing season?

    i take my plastic off during the growing season and put it back on in the fall thru spring.

So I need a system that can hide the smell of a plant so it can be placed just about anywhere without people smelling it from 40 feet away.

    But I have a question will this work during the winter while its snowing?
     
  4. like i said, a greenhouse gets mighty hot in the full summer sun. way hotter than u want it. so u would have to vent it. the smell issue wont be an issue because ur plant is gonna cook to death. greenhouses are very much a hinderence in the summer season.

    not sure how much a issue the smell is @ 40 ft away.

    as to over wintering, it depends on local climate. ur contraption will only give u protection to about 29F tops. so if its below that ever, its not the way to go.
     
  5. or you could build a small poly house
     
  6. im not sure if u read my posts terror. u need to re-read them because i answered that question.
     
  7. Hey bud I'd like to know how this is smell proof when there's no top and it's not sealed?
