Hey all!

Setting up my 1st grow with a 4x8 tent, 2 Spider Farmer SF-4000’s and 8 autoflowers in 5 gallon pots with super soil.

I am curious, is there somehow I can hook up my ducting to the bathroom exhaust? I live in a trailer park so I’m definitely trying to be discreet, even though I live in a legal state. Just don’t want or need that kind of attention. I have a carbon filter so no worries on the smell. Just would rather not have it obvious in a window, ya know.

Any suggestions or alternatives?
I greatly appreciate it in advance! Thanks everyone!
 
A bathroom fan is not likely powerful enough for a 4x8 but you could use the vent if its 6” or bigger.
 
Thank you guys for your responses! I should have been a little more specific, I wouldn’t use the fan in the bathroom at all, just the vent for my ducting connected to my 8’’ AC Infinity Inline Fan and Carbon Filter for exhaust

I would think it's possible. How big is the ducting for the bathroom? I'm guessing it's not 8".
 
Bathroom ducting is usually only 2”. I boarded up a window and exhaust and intake through that
 
But how big is the whole for the fan. 8 inch exhaust you might just be able to attach the ducting to the hole with hvac aluminum tape for the seal too.

It’s definitely not 8 inches, and I agree with that method for sure! Just wanted to make sure it was a safe move to make. Thanks for the advice man and I’ll definitely go that route
 
I grew in a bathroom long time ago. Removed fan and use thick cardboard with screws to ceiling. cut out hole so my ducting fit snug then using strap from ceiling I held the ducting so it wouldn't pull out of the cardboard!!!!
 
I just modified mine tonight. Was waiting on parts. Top hose is 4” intake, bottom
6 “ exhaust. Where I live it’s currently -25c. Now I’m playing with the timing of my exhaust to get my temps cooler for my finish.
