Sorry if this is a really stupid question, please don't laugh ;). But how stinky does it get? Will you be able to smell it out side my house?

It's a brick house. I vent into the ceiling.

Yes it will smell, try going up the chimney if you can & get a carbon filter to exhaust through that will help a lot

So, you will easily be able to smell it outside my house?

And a carbon filter will help this even though apparently my whole house will smell? I have no experience with the flowering so Im just wondering how stinky it actually gets.

So I guess the question that is not being answered. IS: will this be able to be smelled outside my house?

Third times a charm I hope.

How are we supposed to answer that? We know nothing of the construction of your house. Are the eaves vented? how many attic vents? any gable vents? 1 or 2 story atic? yada yada yada

You have a nose, when it starts to smell inside, go outside and walk around the house, especially near your neighbors and SNIFF. If you can detect it, they can too. If you take the advice that was already given to you, you won't have to worry about it to begin with.

Either 3 times a charm or 3 strikes and you are out...

PS, you can also grow herbal plants outside to help mask smells around your entrances. Aromatic ferns and herbals are attractive lanscape plants and will help hide the smell to anyone that might ring your door bell. If someone mentions a nice aroma, point out your plants and thank them....

Lavender and jasmine are excellent plants that exude lots of their own smell. It does help to mask the pot in combination with other things.

Well to be 100% honest my sense of smell is pretty bad, and also I didnt know more info was needed to answer my question since no one even bothered to ask me. I guess its three strikes your out.

Sorry for not being able to decipher smell on my own, and sorry for being ignorant of additional information.


+REP for everyone! Thank you all!
