It CAN be done, but there is alot of factors to consider . Is your hydro all inclusive, because if so any landlord will notice spikes in hydro costs that may raise concern. a Similar thing happened to me not taking into affect the amount of central air I was using to cool my rooms. Best bet is to Scope out your yard space and ashtray. If you see a bong or a pack of rolling papers he would most likely be down, but then again is he your landlord?

If your going to be using a tent would it be possible to set up near a window and vent out directly. Only thing about this option is the winter. If the heat is an issue you could grab a cooltube or a small A/C unit and vent that into the grow

If you are going to employ a carbon filter just exhaust it back into your living quarters. Should a smell issue arise from that you will be the first to know.

Be very, very quiet. At least your grow. Keep a TV or radio on to drown out the noise. Make sure you have a good carbon filter. Do NOT tell him you are growing. You never know when you might have a falling out. Personally, I wouldn't do it.

It's a lot of work but you can do it no problem. Might take a lot of bull shitting on your end.

I live in a rental where my land lords are out of state. But they put the house on the market. Grow is in the garage and I haven't been able to flower recently because I'm about to move. But I got away with not showing the garage during realtor showings because of my "vicious" (sweetest dogs ever, but great guard dogs too) pitbulls get put in there and doors locked. No one cares to enter, they ask to I say no they aren't friendly with strangers.
Typically showings etc they want the tennant gone for. I simply told the realtor up front I'm not leaving my home to accommodate their showings. "My uncle's a lawyer and he says never to allow a land Lord or realtor showing without my presence. Something about legal ramifications in court" this has worked great for me, best bluff ever.

Eventually I had to show the garage bc someone was gonna buy the house. Growing in a 4x4 tent scrog. Check out the pix to see how I hid it all within ny 24 hr notice.
You could do the exact same if you get a 4x4. Scrog early so you're at less then half the tent. Break it down to half way, reattach top of tent, tie scrog to the tents roof, then close it and cover with a tarp. They're gonna check the home not search thru your possessions. Sorry for the length of all this.

That's pretty slick, there. I would never guess unless I could smell it.

Thanks, I thought so too! No one here has any idea I'm growing. But my realtor actually said someone reported a "faint pot smell" from the home on a showing. She actually had the audacity to tell me "..it needs to stop. You will end up getting turned in." This almost 60 year old realtor lady and I butt heads non stop. Legitimately that was her attempt to coerce me into doing as she pleased with the house.
My reply?
"You know, diplomacy tends to yield much better results than coercion. Regardless of the disrespectful manner in which you approached me about this, I will remedy the issue." Oh and attached to the message was my state MMJ card. Check mate. We went from her trying to have multiple showings every other day to maybe one a week. She rarely comes herself but when she does she tries to avoid me. Straight up she's ashamed of her actions and/or the fact that she got out played by a 19 YO kid lol.
Moral of the story, be careful Traxx!! Shit can go south real fast.

I think she's more concern that you'll prevent her from selling the house.
