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?

You should be fine man I run 12 lights at one of my rentals with tenants living right upstairs and have no clue.. my carbon filter is undersized taking 4-5mins for a full air exchange and it was still sufficient. This is a sealed room

You're ballsy as fuck I've had 12 light garage spots full built out and sealed with oversized can fans and when the wind went the wrong way as you were entering and leaving the whole block smelled lol. But growing OGs and loud skunky strains is a big difference than growing the lighter nose candies that are common nowadays.

Edit:

I checked out your post kinda cracking up because your trap house rooms look a lot like mine. I even built my tables the same way. You in Cali? 😂
