Oh, sweet summer child...
You've never dealt with a reef tank. 1000+ watts of metal halide lighting is extremely common, several hundred watts of circulation pumps, protein skimmers, heaters, etc. . Oh, and if you think you're having a lid on that sucker, chances are "no". That's all perfectly legal and can't get you evicted. I've personally worked on systems that have over 2000W of lights and at least half that in accessories. That's to say nothing of the hazards that go with marine organisms, palytoxin is no joke.
Now you want to talk about the safety of growing? My whole setup comes in at less than 700 watts. 520W in total lighting (on timers) and the rest is fans and exhaust. My lights use about 3.5 amps of total headroom on the breaker, the fans add maybe another amp. I could talk about startup surges for ballasts or constant current controllers, but considering your fridge or freezer has a much bigger surge for the compressor startup, let's not.
The humidity in the house is actually considerably less than when I ran my last two aquariums, same with the power bill. Don't be a moron, buy a dehumidifier if you need one.
Oh and if you want to talk about smell? I carbon filter; my anti-cannabis inlaws don't notice a damn thing. It's not hard or even particularly expensive to do this. This filter will do a 4 plant grow no problem and will last about a year to a year and a half of near-constant use: https://www.amazon.ca/VIVOSUN-Inline-Control-Australia-Charcoal/dp/B01MSEVQ3J/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1530731772&sr=8-4&keywords=vivosun+carbon+filter
Charcoal Shoe Inserts (Amazon) They work like a charm, inexpensive and help heed off odors too.
I just bought some of these charcoal odor bags in hopes that they'll neutralize some old grandma furniture. No clue if they're going to work, but could be something to try throwing in the cabinets.
I have found these charcoal bags to be extremely helpful. We keep them in our cars and our house. And you can “recharge” them by putting them outside in the sun!

Same as any other dry herb vape the most smell is from my bud or if you go a little to long or hot with a dry herb vape and combust that will smell alot when your done the grounds go from green to a coffee brown but as far as the vapor goes it smells a little more then a dab pen/cart and I keep my herb in a smell proof box along with it and when I pull it all out after a bowl or 2 put it all away and light a candle smells gone in usally 10 min or so even without a candle I also use a sploofy u don't have to buy them but this is the one I have.

I don't know how practical it would be for him, but you can pick up a 6 inch duct fan, and carbon filter on Amazon that I'd imagine would get rid of the smell. Here's an example: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01EV10FI0/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_hYe0Eb0Y81EPZ
People regularly use these to make grow ops smell proof. I imagine cigarette smoke will eventually clog it up though. The fans are incredibly powerful, and shouldn't have any issues sucking in the smoke, and blowing it out the filter.

I bought a activated charcoal filter and fan for a marijuana grow tent from Amazon, it did a good job getting the stink from our Epson s80600 to be more manageable. and it was only about $150

Fresh coffee grounds are a really good masking agent. You can also get activated charcoal pouches that also help eliminate strong odors but both will free quite you to clean surfaces (walls, linens, ect.).
Just use one of these. This is the model I've used and there was virtually no smell outside the tent.
What you need are charcoal bags from Amazon.
They are amazing. Amazing.
Not a short term fix, but it will keep your car from collecting those odors over time: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZTJPXJM?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
I use two of them in my van...it absorbs all the smells...even the smell of scented odor eaters.
Nice! I picked up some of these Marsheepy bags and they work pretty good and have lasted me over a month so far before replacing.
Try one of those odor eliminator bags. here is an example of one from amazon though you can try a different brand.
I don't know whether that will help you with garlic smell, but I once left a half of a turkey sandwich in my car for about a week in the middle of July and the car smelled like someone had died in it (exaggerating a little). Someone on this sub mentioned these deodorizer bags. I bought a few of them and it did a pretty good job.
Use charcoal bag for odor and see if it works.
Edit: example product
Invest in one of these, partner. Replaceable biodegradable cartridges for around $11 each and they last me at least a month.
You can buy little charcoal bags from Amazon that work well. I bought a pack of 12, and they work really well:
If it doesnt work it doesnt work, find something cheap with a carbon filter, this here is 90$ cad
You can buy bags of activated charcoal on Amazon or elsewhere. They're one of the best ways to absorb odors, even better than baking soda. Use in combination with other solutions, though. You want to make sure no new odors are being generated.
I suggest if you don't want to disassemble and clean the outer case, maybe try putting the whole thing in an air tight container with a few of these activated charcoal packs to absorb as much odor as you can.
this is the personal air purifier i got. Unlike smoke buddy you can get filter refills for it. Use glass, and when you're done inhaling snuff out the bowl after each toke. This works great for me.

These work well for adjusting your fan.
To make this a variable speed fan get yourself one of these controllers. It's wired, but doesn't get in the way, I just drape it over the bars. Crank it up when you need it. Works great.

If only there was a way that you could use a filter to make it so that there is no smell - https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07GL8GQBW
Hahaha I have used this for years and no hotel has charged me shit!! They can try to make me, but they don't find out. Just blow into the filter and sploof!
I got this for trips and such, basically a smoke buddy with a replaceable charcoal filter. I’ve used smoke buddies before and they work pretty well but this thing does the same job better and is much better made.

They got something even better now a metal one! https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07GL8GQBW
It has replacement filters that you switch out like dryer sheets! But this doesn't have you coughing through countless chemicals like when we were teenagers. Used this in apartments for a long time!
I prefer https://www.amazon.ca/Eco-Four-Twenty-Personal-Filter/dp/B07GL8GQBW
It is a Canadian company and made of metal. And it has replacement cartridges so you don't have to keep throwing out cheap plastic. Much nicer.
wash your feet every day, change your socks every day, use sneaker balls(you can get them on amazon cheap) and i bought some of these charcoal things you put in your shoes to get rid of any smell they have but you’d need to leave them in your shoes for about a week or 2.

i used to smoke a ton of weed so when id get home from work my sweat would smell like weed, so my shoes made it smell like i always had weed on me lol i got those bags and after 1-2 weeks the smell was completely gone
I just got a crafty last week so I don't have much to add aside from the smell is milder, but still certainly there. I also have a kid and when using CBD during the day inside I will use one of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N6GKC2B/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_2NFFNRMEH6BWA0PYKD6W?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 and as long as I blow through it slowly it works pretty well.
Get a Sploofy. You should be fine with concentrates if you exhale into this. Maybe even with a flower vape depending on the device. Not with smoking though.
