I'm looking for a 3x3ish grow tent and a light. I've been looking at kits online and the reviews are all so mixed, I think it would be better to put one together myself. Problem is, I'm on a bit of a budget to start this project. I intend to round out the kit as needed, but I don't want to sink a ton of money into a project that may not work out for different reasons.

Can someone suggest me an LED light, exhaust fan and tent?

      Ah fair yeah, I've never had to talk any roommates into me doing it before, just my wife, and it was a little less of a concern since I lived in a legal state at the time.

      Even since my first plant I've always grown way more than I smoked, but i love being able to give some away to friends and comrades too. It's so much fun to grow even as more of a casual user than a dedicated stoner – I know a handful of farmers that grow it on the side as a hobby just cause it's such a neat, rewarding plant to cultivate. One of my favorite hobbies for sure.

          Smell depends on the strain, but just about any plant will have a noticeable odor from about 1-2 rooms away during flower if you don't have a filter. I didn't bother with it for my first few grows and you couldn't ever really smell it outside of my apartment, though from the inside it was pretty distinct as the plant got closer to harvest time

            Literally describing heaven lmao

            I tried to grow in the woods as a kid, and I think deer are em or something. Don’t think it’s in the cards any time soon but it sounds nice!

              carbon filters are pretty easy to kludge together with some activated charcoal and a cheap pc fan, fwiw
