First- you cannot claim adverse possession against someone who doesn't own the property. You don't have an adverse possession against your landlord who doesn't own the property but has an adverse possession claim against the owner of the land. According to the minimal facts you provided you don't have any standing to make such a claim. You are using the property with the landlord's permission. One of the elements required to make a claim of adverse possession is that you use the property openly and notoriously (without permission).
