i have to grow in a closet since ill be living with roomates in the next few months anyways, do u think this is possible also i heard about these bags u can use so u can't smell them... also do u have to give them sunlight? two if i do have to give them sunlight then do i have to be exact? like 12 hour on 12 off or can i be flexible with it?, i heard some mushrooms don't need sunlight.
anyways i managed to find out i can give the shrooms some indirect sunlight, i heard they just need enough so u can see them in the dark, will this be fine..
also again what about the odor will that be a problem?

You can grow in a closet many do it.
I don't know about those bags.
You can buy a GE energy smart light It's a cool natural light that is a daylight 6500k light. 6500k is perfect for fruiting. I bought a 2 pack 26 watt for $9.

Like he said those are really good bulbs.. As far as the smell I am pretty sure you will always have it cause you can't completely enclose the shrooms you need FEA.. Unless you were to build some kind of ventilation system with a carbon filter at the end.. Like the ones used for growing weed..

well i managed to figure out i could get some indirect sunlight in the closet without anyone seeing them, anyways i heard you only needed enough sunlight so that u could see the shrooms in the dark and then it would be fine.

It's not like growing bud the smell is very minimal no one will know. You need 12 on 12 off for best results. Ijust heard Jeetered say as long as you let them have enough light to get a good pinset start you can leave them in the dark and they will be good to go but I haven't tried that yet.

I am using my closet, or lack there for the time being until I get everything unpacked/set up. But space wise its unbelievable small. It works pretty good excluding the tub in the picture. She's lagging around being stubborn because it's a little hot.
As you can tell by the picture, its nothing special in the slightest, but it works like a charm when I can get it tuned in (just moved, trying to get use to the temp flux of an uninsulated two story town house in Florida ). Anyways, a little is a lot in the adventure of mycology.
Good luck, and good fortunes broha

A closet should do you fine,bags don't really give off a smell that should bother anyone,as far as lighting its is only a secondary pinning trigger,they need little in my experience to do anything,especially growing in bags your mushrooms are going to be all deformed anyway so letting them know what direction to grow in shouldn't be a big deal

Yo Blutjager, RR's gonna take down that pic when he sees it. He did it to me under a very similar circumstance.
If you use a shotgun FC, be sure not to place it on
anything that can absorb water lol. I know that seems
obvious, but today I put a towel on my bed then placed my FC on it, to catch some indirect sunlight while no one
was home. I came home and my bed was soaked. The water
didn't spill out while it sat on a plastic surface so I
thought I'd be fine. Nope, soaked bed.

Not sure how much room you have to spare in your closet, but I turned a small closet in my house into this fruiting chamber. I use a box to hold my jars while they colonize so they're totally out of sight to everyone, and then this closet has doors on it and I have no smell to speak of really. I'm not using horse poo though.. coir grows don't seem to have any odor. The room doesn't smell like mushrooms except when I harvest.
