What you're smelling is the terpenes, the volatile aromatic compounds present in cannabis. They provide the taste, aroma, and synergistic effects present in cannabis. You could, if you were so inclined, put your flower in a vacuum chamber and pull all those terps off. It would smell like grass, taste like ass, and not be as pleasant effect-wise, but it would get rid of the smell. Try a dry-herb vape. There's still smell, but it's a lot less. Or, put one of these in your smoking area: https://www.amazon.com/VIVOSUN-Air-Filtration-Kit-Controller/dp/B06XFRNPR8/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_86_img_1/143-0726135-2560430?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=PP2EZ1QZN61VNVCEGBSN
ODOR BE GONE!

Pretty much stopped growing vertical (an inch or 2 since last update) but filling out nicely.
Some yellow showing on tips, but not too concerned at this point as she looks to be doing fine. I noticed roots at the top of the soil and had about an inch of room for more substrate, so topped it up.
She is drinking a lot now, almost daily feedings of about 3 liters.

Congrats on finding the seeds and getting this far. If you are a first time grower, then I would highly recommend a controlled environment starting with a tent. I have done it both ways, and outdoor seasonally, and you will benefit a lot from having a confined space you can control as you learn. Contrary to popular belief, it isnt "just a weed that grows". To have a quality finished product you need a good amount of time and energy spent on the plants. However, because the growth takes time, as a first time grower, you can purchase the items you need as you need them to build out your grow. I have purchased a lot of my items on amazon, so I will provide some links to items I vouch for personally.
​
​
I would start with a light and good soil. This is one of the most important items by far. For indoor, use LED, or a combo of T5 for veg and then LED for flower.t5: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M624OCR/ref=crt_ewc_title_oth_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1KBVFFLR1WEMK
LED: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0185OLBPK/ref=sspa_dk_detail_10?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B0185OLBPK
I have both of these products and can finish 4 plants in a tent nicely in about 100 days. I know people have feelings about using off brand lights but I have had zero issues, ever. On thing to do though is to not let the plants grow too tall. Rather train them to grow like bushes by topping them early and continuing to top the new nodes at a reasonable height, Id suggest 30 inches max (from top of the pot).
Also buy this : https://www.amazon.com/General-Hydroponics-pH-Control-Kit/dp/B000BNKWZY/ref=pd_sim_86_7?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000BNKWZY&pd_rd_r=5185d750-c735-11e8-83ba-35492fd40af5&pd_rd_w=FfWzV&pd_rd_wg=5opTv&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=18bb0b78-4200-49b9-ac91-f141d61a1780&pf_rd_r=5TDAFKEPVRHZC2TKYA3F&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=5TDAFKEPVRHZC2TKYA3F
AND LEARN ABOUT pH!!!! Many young growers don't do this and it makes a HUGE difference.
For veg, you will be able to get by a few weeks or maybe a month without a tent, but the light will become annoying.
For soil. I highly recommend mixing fox farms happy frog and ocean forest. This will prevent you needing to use fertilizers really at all until flower time. Yes it is kind of expensive, but it is worth it. I have tried the experiment of making soil myself... it becomes outrageously priced so fast and unless you are really good at chemistry/botany you can totally fuck some shit up. Trust the fox farms soil. It is the best IMO. Also, I am a huge fan of cloth bags. I suggest these:

So a tent should be your next purchase.
I have two of these and they do a great job.Tent: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XJQ8LPY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Shortly after getting the tent set up you need to get an oscillating fan and some regulators to tell you temp, humidity, etc.

Now even in veg, your plants are going to begin to smell. But by flower time you will have a real problem on your hands, even with a tent. So next you will need a carbon scrubber. I use this one off amazon for a tent and have zero complaints while the tent is closed. I also have the filter hanging in the tent and venting out the side into the attic of my rental. Zero smell, unless the tent is open (which you will want to do in the beginning, but over time you will learn to not go in everyday unless you need to). With this item, every other grow you need to replace just the carbon canister part of it. It is easy to do and worth every penny.

Buying all this over time is pretty easy, even on a conservative budget.
Hope this helps!

I see a lot of the ventilation mods for the Photon using the printed backplate for a 4" dryer hose.My wife cannot stand the smell of the resins, and is also very concerned about the long term health effects. So I'm building an enclosure as cheaply as I can.
I've sealed up an Ikea Lixhult ($40) and cut out a 4" hole to attach a hose. I'm probably going to buy the Vivosun Air Filtration Kit as the extractor.
Here's the progress so far.
For those of you who would be willing to spend 200$ to not have to go outside. Put one in my workshop in the basement, works like a charm. If you dont care send smelly weed smoke out your window you only need the inline fan and duct
https://www.amazon.ca/VIVOSUN-Air-Filtration-Kit-Controller/dp/B06XFRNPR8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=carbon+filter+fan+combo&qid=1567949397&s=gateway&sprefix=carbon+filter&sr=8-3
A proper setup should be able to get rid of any smells, but that wouldn't be a sandwich-sized sponge and your usual 120mm computer case fan. In order for this to work you will need a radial fan and a proper filter like this set. Something smaller would certainly do, but I've never seen anything under 4" diameter.
They key is getting something that provides enough suction toward the exhaust so all the other openings and cracks in the photon's case don't leak any gas. This will in turn increase the volume of your whole setup. Sleeping next to it might be difficult. There's solutions for that, too, if you're willing to spend the time and money.
I would have to say yeah, slightly, if you're not willing to do anything at all about it. How much effort you're willing to go through is up to you, but I'll throw out a few suggestions, from low effort to ludicrous:
-try from different places on your balcony, although it's difficult to predict wind against a building.
-smoke out of a different window
-smoke into your range hood or bathroom exhaust fan
-any of the above plus a fan to blow the smoke farther/better
-add a HEPA filter to the fan
-some kind of personal air filter like the smoke buddy
-hack together a tube with fan and activated charcoal (diy version of below)
-blow your smoke through something like this bad boy: https://www.amazon.com/VIVOSUN-Air-Filtration-Kit-Controller/dp/B06XFRNPR8
(maybe they'll even pay for it, I know I probably would cough up a hundred bucks to permanently abate a nuisance that bothered me multiple times a day)
The exhaust is 4'' x 14''..
My budget has been pretty tight due to unexpected medical bills, that's the only reason I was hoping to make due with a 4" filtration system. That's a solid suggestion though and I may be able to cut some corners elsewhere to make that work.
Everything is on Amazon, though I'm in Canada so it's .ca but they have clearly been prepping for this for some time.
I'm allowed 4 plants so I am growing 2 different strains. I am using LED lighting and I have a self-contained tent as well as a carbon filter and fan for ventilation. I am starting in soil but might eventually move to hydroponics.

can you afford spending $100?

I used to have a 6" carbon filter and a inline fan standing in my kitchen for whenever I wanted a smoke. just crack open the window and let the exhaust out, it works great with flower and tobacco leaving no lingering smells in the house
Yup
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFRNPR8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I am exhausting into the same room which does cause some of the issue. I’m working on getting the drivers outside the tent. I’ve also moved the fan and filter according to the bottom-left square.
The kit I was looking at, I am 80% sure my exhaust fan is trash
The fan I got came with a speed controller. Not too sure how much it can control tho tbh. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFRNPR8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I think it will do fine... Are there any cheaper kit alternatives?

I have a four inch and a 6 inch fan and filter, 4 goes in, 6 goes out.
The rest of it I pretty much wing. My nutes are the fox farm trio.
The hyperlink goes to the tent instead of the chilled logic LEDs. I know which ones you're talking about, but the link is bad. If you're running in a small tent you can really get by with a small fan. You could check out a 4in kit from Amazon. It's cheaper than your current filter and comes with a fan and some ducting. That would be more than enough for your little tent. If you haven't chosen your seeds yet, I would recommend Mephisto genetics for autos. Great stuff, quick shipping. If you're in Canada they do have their shop closed for a few weeks but you can order from the US or UK store.
The fan I have at hand is a basic 4in fan by vivosun says 203cfm

Fan and Filter if your going to spend money on a smoke eater dont fuck around with over priced under powered consumer toys, a set up like this can clear a room in a few minutes the activated carbon in the filter can be easily changed without having to replace a brand specific filter cartage.
A 4” fan that is tuneable will be able to fill your needs
Here ya go! VIVOSUN Air Filtration Kit: 4 Inch 203 CFM Inline Fan with Speed Controller, 4'' Carbon Filter and 8 Feet of Ducting Combo https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFRNPR8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_2KtCDbDYGCGXH
You’ll need to place it on the outside of the tent assuming your entire space is filled with plants. Luckily you can flip the fan either way to control the flow direction
Honestly just look around on amazon for a bit. Any 4 inch carbon filter and inline fan combo should do just fine. If you wanna be lazy just buy this one then https://www.amazon.com/VIVOSUN-Inline-Controller-Carbon-Ducting/dp/B06XFRNPR8/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1511221397&sr=8-15&keywords=carbon+filter+4+inch
But honestly, any will do just fine.

The AC infinity I've heard good things about but definitely more expensive.
I am about to go with that , would you say that it is going to perform better than this https://www.amazon.com/VIVOSUN-Air-Filtration-Kit-Controller/dp/B06XFRNPR8/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_86_t_0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=J69MSM35Y5V8WBQ6GCC9 ?
