BackWoodsBurner, actually, I'm glad you mentioned it. I was wondering if the Old Spice would mess with the respiration of the plants or something like that. I'm simply not going to try to do half ass stuff anymore because it is a waste of time. I realize now that I should be using ona gel or a carbon scrubber. I honestly didn't realize how potent the smell of weed is when you're growing it. Plus, I was trying to be a cheap ass by using some old underarm deodorant. The truth in the matter is if a person can't afford to safely grow, then they shouldn't grow. I'm a newbie and in the beginning stages of my grow and I only focused on getting the seeds, soil, soil containers, soil containers' containers (water drainage), lights, hoods for the lights, hooks for the lights, light timer, mylar or Walmart emergency blankets, and fans. In this process, I got so caught up with getting everything going that I didn't think much about what to do once everything was up and running. I think the list of things that are needed for growing weed needs to be updated, perhaps, I should say that it needs to be stressed more. I do realize that not everyone grows indoors like myself or many others on these forums, for those who do though, carbon scrubbers or ona gel should be right next to seeds on the list of necessary components needed to grow. Again, this is my first grow and I only have 5 plants but I'd make an educated guess that the odor of one plant in flowering would be enough to get a person busted. They really are quite potent. Sure some strains are less potent than others but all weed smells. I don't personally know about all weed smelling. I just read it in someone else's post. The point is that precautions need to be taken to deal with the odor that weed produces. Many new growers, such as myself, don't understand what they are getting themselves into in the early stages of cultivation.
