Okay so I have a 100x100x200 tent, and I currently have a loose bed/mattress sheet (the ones without the fitted corners) I have that put on it so it looks like the material is naturally grey. could be sold off as like a shelf? or a wardrobe or a storage room?, was planning on saying it's like a cheap shelf I keep my books and I put that on top so dust and stuff don't get to it but wondering if that's stupid? the landlord isn't there to check/search my property but obviously I don't want her to be suspicious, funny thing is imagine my living room, on the other side of the room is the window, on the left side of the window wall is my dinner table and chairs and on the right side is my tent and on the opposite corner of the tent is my wardrobe (yeah I know wardrobe in living room) it's because I switched my bedroom and living room up so my old living room is now my bedroom and my wardrobe was too big and wont fit out of the door.
So would it look obvious? or it could be bought off?, alternatively I can always uninstall the tent and put my plants in wardrobe or cabinet or something but I don't want to, it just causes so much hassle and backache that lasts me 3days every time I install a tent due to amount of bending I do and it's going to take time.
It looks like this picture but like a different colour I got baby blue and brown and black and obviously without the door? if she asks how do you get inside what do I respond? do I tell her this is the original material or that I put it on top of myself?

Leave the tent up and leave it open with some clothes or books in it, hide your light & plants in a closet or wherever then next time landlord is there you won't have to hide anything

Doesn't that like defeat the whole purpose of what I'm trying to do because then I would have to remove all my plants, remove and uninstall my lighting kit remove all the carefully organized wiring I've done to make it look neat and make the wires invisible, take out the 16" fan I have inside etc... if I'm doing all that I might as well just uninstall the tent too. (btw I'm not trying to sound rude bro :) ) Trying to get some hardcore discussion going on :D

Right! Buy some cedar blocks. Fold some quilts and place those in the tent along with winter coats and call it a storage area. Be creative.

Wait why cedar blocks?, and so uninstall the light and take out everything? including fan carbon filter external 16" fan too damn man pain in the ass that's like the main bit tent takes minutes to install.

I have 4 apartments I rent out,
3 to students I do 6 month inspections and service & have the furnaces serviced at the same time, I could care less what my tenants do inside there units as long as the rents paid on time and they don't pose a fire or flood risk to my property or any undue damages
I've seen some weird shit going on but look the other way and tend to the Buisness that needs to be done

Don't try to hide a grow set up
Disguise it into a house plant display or something that doesn't make your landlord not trust you

As soon as she comes in to visit, start flirting and ask her if she wants to grab some dinner.

Well she wanted to visit with an engineer to look at my bathroom and kitchen and the condition of it to fit in a new bathroom and kitchen (As I requested, the bathroom is so old it doesn't even have a shower it has tap water) so she agreed. House was a bit messy at the time so she was like "can I check see if you're keeping the house tidy and whether it's safe environment for our workers to come" I was like I can't let you into the other rooms at the moment it's quite messy I said you may look but it's messy I feel embarrassed, obviously she couldn't force me and by law she must give me notice so she said she would be back in 2 weeks and said that should give me enough time to tidy up.

So you asked her over? Move everything into a safe bedroom, no need to take a risk. Clean up and really care about the place. Is it that hard to screw on a new shower head yourself? Or fix whatever the problem is yourself? Landlords love good lookin people who take care of the place themselves. Stop trolling if you are trolling.

No you don't understand yes I agree I'm probably to blame but she was suppose to check only the bathroom and the kitchen only but cuz it's messy she's like "seen as I'm here might as well check the whole house" so now she wants to check fml I have to spend 2 hours taking the tent down and every time I take that bloody thing that the house gets so dusty and messy and I have to hide all the equipment and you know how much hassle it is to fold the tent material accurately? :(

Without actually seeing your situation I can't sell if it's a viable option, but you could always go the old hippie rout, just throw a pretty cloth cover over it, and if she asks say that's where you keep your TV and Stereo equipment and that you cover it when it's not in use so you don't have to look at ugly electronics (If she doesn't ask, don't bring it up, no reason to draw attention to it). That explains the cords that may be coming out of it, and it should be about the right dimensions, and as long as you don't have like a big screen tv on the wall it could be enough of an explanation to make sense. Remember that unless people are really after you, they WANT to believe what you say, she's just there to look around, she's not there to interrogate you and really flex her deception detection techniques.

I know right? If they were real they would all end with cops showing up, then fade out to little "One month later" text like at the end of Beyond Scared Straight that would sum up the court cases that inevitably followed.
