Hi, I've gotten myself into a predicament that I could use some help with. I got a bag with a few seeds recently and for grins decided to see if I could sprout them (wasn't sure they were viable). I stuck 3 seeds in some dirt and low and behold they all sprouted.
So of course I went and bought some lights and had a little indoor nursery. Then of course I needed more and better lights, on and on and ended up buying a hydroponic grow tent. I thought it would be a cool little stealth grow operation.
Except it's too big to be stealth (2'x3'x5'), and generates a tremendous amount of heat so I can't stick it in the closet. I have to keep my door closed to hide it and it's so hot in my room I had to get an A/C unit. Yikes, the whole thing has spiraled out of control.
To top it off I don't live in "lowest priority" Seattle but in an uptight little suburb and waaay too close to a school.
So can anyone help me? I'm looking into renting some kind of space in the within the city but prices are high and I'd have to hide it from most landlords. No easy feat with the amount of ventilation or cooling it needs. I'd rather find someone I can be upfront with who may have a secure space to park my little experiment.
I'm also open to any helpful suggestions people may have.
Thanks
