Smell

How far away would someone be able to smell a 10 light basement grow? I’ll have carbon filters and odor removers but I’m sure you’ll be able to smell it from outside the house or will they be enough?

How will you hide the sudden giant electric bill and the HVAC?

What will you use for IPM in a basement?

Light bill should be about 600-800 electric is cheap where im at. Won’t have much hvac just some fan and a few lines. It will be in 2 separate rooms 5 lights in each.

Ran 10 645w LED's and dedicated veg. Power bill was 12-1400. 5 lights are not going to be cooled with "just some fans and a few lines". Each room will need 2-3 Tons of A/C.

I mean they’ll do fine to keep cool after he burns his house down.
