So I live in a state with a very warm climate. I have a small 2 plant grow going on inside that is flowering as we speak. So im in an apt and my a/c fucking broke or atleast stop blowing cold air. The fan runs but its hot air and idk what to do. I of course would just call the apt maintenance to have it fixed but i dont want them that close to my grow at all and especially when im not there so i know they arent snooping around. Im not sure how hvac systems work so im not sure if it is a problem specific to my unit or if its like some central hvac problem that needs fixed outside so I dont even need to do anything.

What the fuck should I do? I cant give my babies to anyone so thats not an option. I do have a carbon filter of course but i still think i can smell it a little in my apt as its a very very small apt.
Is it one of them big A/C's they have outdoors? Down in FL them things where everywhere and stupid kids will huff the freon like I did as a stupid kid. Lol, One time my brother huffed the freon out of our system and the A/C wouldn't work she would blow just warm until the repair man refilled it and said something like "stupid kids huff freon. " Lol

Tbh idk why I can smell anything its def an oversized carbon filter for the space I'm in . Also I'd prob have to turn it off when they came or else they be like wtf is there a loud fan noise coming from the closet lol. I also thought about hiring an outside maintenence but can't afford it right now or a wall mounted ac unit. I thought about just masking the little smell there is with candles and food or febreeze and just be here while they do it to see if they act weird
Over sized for the fan not the space. If the fan is too big for the space it will move air to fast over the carbon and smell will get by. Like use a 4 inch fan with an 8 inch filter.

You could build one. I just bought a big box of coconut carbon, the same phresh uses, and will build a filter out of a bucket. It is over kill. I will take my old filters and put them in speaker boxes with fans for a stealth air cleaner.

Is it a smoke friendly apartment? Ever been in a bar when a guy leaves a cigar buring away in a ashtray? If not insense and glade plug ins and alittle fabreze should do the trick long anuff

let a damp mop sit in a bucket for a few weeks until it gets moldy. I saw this done successfully in a cannabis bar in Colorado Springs. Very effective.

......... :spew:

I left a mop in a bucket like a week and holy shit that stunk.

But if you got any Italian in you you must know how to make some good ass pasta sauce that will cover up the smell and smell good just make you feel hungrier than you are. Lol, Real garlic only Americans use that shitty garlic powder it's why they suck at making pasta. :bigjoint:

The smell isn't that strong since the carbon filter I have. I mean you have to be like within a couple feet of the tent and even then it's faint but still I guess I'm just paranoid cause I of course am always looking for the smell
I got a 4kw room at min week 5 rocking with a half liter of vinegar on top of every light. You go in and stinks like vinegar. I even squirt some inside the exhaust duct sometimes for that extra vinegary smell. Last weeks and harvest i use ona block. Been working for me.

careful guys- those smell masking agents WILL impart an artificial smell unto your cannabis. try to only use it in separate buffering areas or not at all. Carbon filters
Worst grow I ever saw was in a rat-infested home. Everything smelled like industrial urinal pucks. Just awful.
