Agreed it does sound excellent to have that all year round 'creative' space to grow! So you'll be thinking of a rosin press next? That also looks appealing too.For approval, I agreed to limit my outdoor to 1 plant and have a greenhouse to put it in. If you have a private space, the filters do control the smell. You would love it and should find a way.
I love growing, the stash is great and a wonderful byproduct of doing what I enjoy. Its not the best part anymore, its a given.
My concern was that it would be messy and somewhat hard to control. For me, its easy to be neat and I have control over the growing environment. The downside is, I see how this could become an obsession.
