Tips on growing odorless-ly?

Ok so, this is probably going to sound dumb. But I'd like whatever advice anyone has. Not being able to purchase any expensive growing equipment, I want to grow a small plant. I purchased HSO Blue Dream Autos x3 and plan on only growing 1 at a time.
I plan on growing with miracle-gro (yeah I know it's not recommended, but I originally didn't have any soil, needed something cheap) in a small container (you probably don't want to know).
If I'm correct, even though blue dream is sativa dominant, the small growing space for roots with ruderalis traces from being auto shouldn't make it grow huge as hell.
But my main issue is odor. Strong odor, more specifically skunky. Never growing this before, does anyone have experience with the blue dream strain? And if so how strong was the odor, and more specifically what scent? If it's pine-like, which is supposedly the dominant terpene, it's not that big a deal. But is it skunky at all? As in, I'm growing it in a 3x3 space in a closet in my room. And I'd prefer my room to NOT smell of skunky weed, and definitely not the whole house, and preferably not the closet either. But that's one area I'll allow. If it is an issue, if I were to grow in a nearby tree patchy would the smell be obvious? Would it be obvious?


Also I have a few other questions that I'd like answered if you can. if I were to grow in the closet with the lights off, And bring it to my window sill for a few hours a day for direct sunlight, and back in the closet, would that work? It works out for me and I'm also actually trying to shove it into flowering (which I don't know if it'll work with ruderalis genes). I'm not looking for a Chernobyl sized yield, just looking to grow a small person stash. Like an ounce. Or even a little less if it's all I get. But I'd prefer decent effects and quality, not best, but not shit. But I have constraints. And bugs and mildew, (I don't think mildews an issue cause my room has a fan on and it's nice temp most of the time) particularly spider mites. Are these things common? I feel like if I grow I'll have to monitor everything, like all the issues will happen to me. I also have arachnophobia and prefer no webs on my plant please. So is it like a high chance of happening?

Thanks for taking the time to read.

Not familiar with the strain, But you will have odor. I grew a pineapple kush in my bedroom and you could smell it throughout the house and outside as well, and it was a very strong smell.
You will probably need a carbon filter and a decent fan

Sorry to say, the smell will come if it gets to flower...if you are only giving it window light, it isnt going to turn out for you, sorry. Not being mean or anything, but auto need 18 hours of light or more a couple hours of window light for an auto or even a photo isnt going to work. Autos are on their own timeline, you can't force flowering in an auto. Remember, smoke the bud not the leaves and without light, the buds wont form..

This isn't completely true as autos can flower in 24/0 lighting, but they can grow and flowers with with only 6-8 hours of light also. They just wont have very good growth and small wisp flowers.

No matter what the strain...you need a carbon filter or its gonna stank.

No way around it. Buy a filter and fan.

He said 18 hours or more, if you are giving it less than 12 hours of daylight, and even at 12 hours of daylight the seed costs more than buying what you will yield on the streets, therefore you would be wasting your time growing it out

You could use natural odor masking, go out into the woods and set some live traps, catch as many skunks as you can and release them into your yard, neibors won't know the difference(they will however be able to find out who brought em in lol)

just buy a pet skunk and blame it on him/her lol

Omg, love the last 2 answers. Yeah I've changed my plans a lot since I posted this and actually started growing with a plan to keep the smell controllable. There obviously will be a smell but I'm gonna attempt to keep it low

Healthy plants stink less, one of the best things you can do is keep them green and happy during flower especially.

So the greener and healthier the less smell? I also heard that Indica is the skunky earthy smelling strain, and that sativa is more of a fruity herb smell. although this is a sativa dominant mix... Do you think it'll smell even less because of this?

Been growin for over 40 years never owned a carbon filter, they don't stink at all if ya grow em right but most folks don't get that

HSO blue dream auto outdoors. Two ounce plant

I had a friend who was growing in a rental and bought a pet skunk. Funny as shit

Damn, that's long... And no strong skunky smell at all? How do you grow? Any tips to not have a noticeable odor?
All I have so far is a lil baby sprout... She's been growing decently in my opinion

Don't follow any black market stealth methods. Don't seal anything, I grow in a wide open basement. Don't use only HPS, give em a full spectrum. Don't crowd em, they don't like to touch each other. Don't stress em, the stink is a defense thing if they are stressed or think they are in danger (ie: a deer is eatin em) they put off a smell

In my garden if I smell anything I know there is a problem, and it is actually very rare as I have very few problems

That makes definite sense, just like a skunk. Ive heard that touching them makes them smell too which would support that point, meaning you need a hands off at all times thing. Also is that why it smells most of the time? Because people put them in closets and stuff and usually with a group of plants close to each other usually. So if I leave it be and just give it sunlight or when it comes to it another light source and just make sure it has space and is healthy it won't smell bad?

And yeah, I heard they need air flow for fresh air and CO2 and whatnot, that's why I keep my fan running not to fast to make it too cold, but enough for air movement and I have my window open for fresh air.

lol @ healthy plants dont stink!!! ever thought you might just be used to the smell?
