2. Using your drill with the 4″ hole-saw bit, cut a hole in the center of the 5-gallon bucket lid. Test the 4″ dryer hose flange for tight fitment within the hole.

3. With the dryer hose flange in the hole cut through the bucket lid. Take the silicon and apply caulk around the base of the base of the dryer hose flange and bucket lid. Let this set 4-6hrs for an airtight seal.

You have decided to create your own growroom! Here are some tips to ensure you cover all basis and avoid any risks of getting caught!

Problem	Solution
Your A/C runs constantly, even in the winter.	Display yourself as a ‘eskimo’ that loves the cold. Or setup a intake system to bring cool, filtered air inside your room.
Large boxes of lights, and other growing equipment keep turning up at your apartment.	Gradually sneak in your supplies within non-suspicious containers and when your neighbors are less likely to be watching.
You end up with over 50 pounds of soil every few months.	Cautiously dispense of excess soil. There are a few good pointers in “The Shawshank Redemption”.
Despite the blizzard going on, your roof is free of snow.	Try growing in a basement, or on lower floor or even a basement. You could always move from the ‘snow laden’ location you might be in.
The cannabis you have is better than everyone else around you, and you are supplied by a ‘connect’.	Smoke with trusted friends only! Or you will find that everyone wants to obtain pot from your ‘connect’.
