Looks like you did your homework. Don't know about your time line. 8 weeks from flowering but figure a week to 10 days for germination / seedlings and I like at least 4 weeks of vegetative before flipping to 12/12. I mean if you are going to go through all this effort and expense, why limit yourself to a small under-developed crop?

Smell and heat will be your biggest issues. The carbon filter will take care of the smell as long as the room is sealed and the ducting isn't compromised. The 250w will put out some heat so the exhaust fan will help keep it cool.

You might pick up a fan speed controller. This will help reduce the rpms of the fan and lower the noise level. I run mine at 50-75% depending on temps.

Last word of advice is pay your bills on time. Apt. renters are more exposed than most because of snoopy landlords and close neighbors.

I like what I see so far.

If you can't cut a hole for ventilation you need to have an a/c in the window to pull that hot air out while cooling. I would use the alchohol to clean it myself, to address one of your other questions.

Is your apt like half a house or a multiple unit structure?

if you have a time limit on 8 weeks and seed is`t germinated yet, your only choice is a Auto, a 60 wonder or similar, two of them under a 250W might work

Wow, with your time line bro I would really re-think sinking a bunch of money into something you might not be able to finish. I was growing in an apartment and had to pull 16 plants when I got an inspection notice to look at outlets and light sockets:cuss:. I was so pissed, I hope you have better luck! I would really reconsider your strain choices as well, there's nothing wrong with the strains you suggested just not the fastest growers really. If I were you I would definitely do an auto for the time savings, maybe Dutch Passion's, Think Different, little heavier yielder than most auto's and I've heard the potency isn't horrible. Hope this helps. Good luck, Good grow, Be safe, :peace: out.

next time, rent a small truck (sumthing that can take a few of them big boxes you use for moving) and park your plants around the corner for the 30 minuts

cant see the light ?

ventialtion look fine, that will work

and yes a scrog works well with LEDs

I do it

just 4 bamboo sticks and some chicken wire, do the job of keeping them small and bushy, with all the Buds under the light, perfect to maximize yield with LEDs

Look up my grow man. A mazar would be good in your small area or even thc bomb, depends what your trying to grow, different strains for different folks, myself I want to get potency, yield is nice but id rather have a 1 oz 28% thc plant than a 8 oz 12 % thc plant, I want killer weed and you should too am I right. Ps, I like my fans, low wattage and not to noisy, a ac is louder than the fans that are ducted. Cheers and keep your head up

if the room is sealed and air tight the carbon filter will remove 99,9% of the smell so dont worry, if you still worry a bit if you have Etc visitors over, get a jar of Ona gel you can open on them day`s

ONA-PRO-4LJ-600[1]-640x480.jpg

a cheap and easy way to remove any last odor left by the filter (my filter remove all, in my world, but when my mom comes by she can still smell em, as she is`t used to it, specially if I just had my room open)

I made my "door" out of some tick black rubber mat and a zipper from a dust door (dust doors can be found in most hardware stores and is used to cover up when working on a house)

rockidans-stovdor.jpg8599.jpg

pictures of dust doors, cost like 10$ but only thing you want from em is the robust zipper

DSC00486.jpgDSC00509.jpg

my door to my grow room, the zipper from the dust door have strong glue on the back side, I just glued it on, opened it and cut with a new blade from a stanley knife down it the middle, works great, you might be able to find the zipper`s sold separate ? I couldn't

also the zipper is pretty light proof (99% maybe) but to totally light proof it I made a small curtain I could pull in front of the "door" (also in black of course)

no problem, Im here to help

Btw Im from Denmark (scandinavia) if that help`s ?

but English is fine, just continue to ask question, as you gain experience you also get better to English/write/spell, 30% of my English I own to 7 years of private school the other 70% I own to the internet Im sure that and bad Tv series :D

about the Ona gel, have a read:

http://www.onaonline.com/prod-onagel.php

its a cheap way to get rit of all odor quickly, but there is also the option to buy a air refresher

images.jpeg

come with 2 and 3 filter type, you want the 3 filter and the last one is carbon and for odor (other 2 is for dust and small particles like mold/PW so also help you to get a better indoor air)

cost start at 70 euro and up, so this is sumthing to look in to if its important for you to really hide all smell and don't mind using the extra money to be safe, but the filter on the ventilation will mask atleast 99% so maybe start with that and see, might be better stuff to use your money on


here is how carbon filters work

vent.jpg



and no, no super glue, have to pull it down some day, so only 4 screw`s in the wall`s and some white silicone to make it air proof


some pictures for inspiration, be creative, use what you have at hand
