I'm in the same boat. Growing in a basement has challenges such as not good airflow. I bring in fresh air and with it being winter the air is very very cold and dry so i have to run heaters and humidifiers while still venting outside so all these components have to be in perfect sync with one another and then when the lights go out i have to do it all over again and so on. That occompanied with plants of all diffrent stages of growth and specific needs it gets even harder to get the environment just right. Most people have no idea the time, patience, and skill required to grow great quality cannabis in areas like the northeast.
