Nope. Im sure many others have. One guy even did a grow journal. He grew in his fire place. But, seriously. It's a top notch idea. I think you would still have to clean the air or everybody in the neighborhood might think your raising skunks in there. Keep us updated.
I saw an episode of Holmes on Homes and he helped this lady who owned a house somewhere in Canada and had rented it out. The person she rented to was a large scale grower but he got busted as Holmes was going thru the house I noticed how the exhaust from the grow rooms were all vented to the fireplace which had been boarded off and a large squirrel cage fan was actually in the fireplace forcing all the air up and out thru the chimney !
I have an unused about 9 meters high chimney I use to vent my air out. I have just two plants, so when the air is continually vented out, the smell is dispersed enough that no human can smell it.
I did the same.. Throw in a big blue,hot humid days will skunk out your neighbors..all the way up the street.from experience.
Lucky my friend lived at the end of the block..
Be safe.
