My grow background is using a grow tent: I grow weed in the spare room with all the proper equipment, now using a 2x4 grow tent, a 300W LED made for a 2x4 footprint, auto-watering pot bases for 5-gallon fabric pots full of Coco Loco, GH nutrients, pH pen, exhaust fan, carbon filter. I started in a closet and tried a few different ways but I think a "real" grow tent setup is the best way to grow weed. It takes out a lot of the uncertainty. After multiple grows, I'm pretty happy now with my bud quality and yields of 10+ oz per harvest.
Stealth growing options: However, I've been learning a lot about stealth growing for a friend who wants to start growing weed but needs it to be smaller and stealthier than a grow tent. I feel like my knowledge I've gained from my own experience might help a little, but it seems like stealth cannabis growing comes with a lot of its own challenges you kind of skip by just having a grow tent.
For example, how do you control smell in any grow space besides a tent? As far as I know you need the negative pressure of the tent with the exhaust fan to ensure smelly air doesn't leak out. It seems like true smell filtering outside a grow tent would be close to impossible without a whole lot of DIY sealing. Maybe the way to go with that is get a low-smell strain and keep the plant small, but I know how stinky cannabis plants get in flowering.
If you're growing in an unusual grow situation, I'd love to hear your experience and see your pictures. What's worked for you? What challenges have you faced?
