may i ask how many girls you have going for it to reek that much?
I didnt know what a carbon filter was until a started growing...
BTW im curious what did they do the first two times they broke in? They just opened your doors and were like "oh cool weed plants" then left? I recommend bear traps.
I agree with many people on here, you need bigger, better locks and some immediate odor control. There are several links on here to make great, cheap activated carbon filters. I would suggest making a carbon filter for your air outtake, THEN putting some ONA gel in the grow room just to make sure. Whatever you do, you need to do it NOW!! Be careful and good luck!
LMFAO!!!I'm gonna give that a shot.I recommend bear traps.
I'm glad you got everything taken care of!Luckily I was able to come up with some money to order a new fan and filter, it should arrive no later than Wednesday. Purchased some ONA Gel today as well. I have alarms on doors, looking into getting some security cameras as well. Who would have thought that a mere 2 plants would create that much, and that strong of a smell. I've been around it my entire life. Picked up tips and tricks from an uncle who has been doing this since the 60's. Looking to get a German Shepherd to help protect the place from crackheads. Cookie, this castle resides in a bad neighborhood, but it's the neighborhood I grew up in and I'm use to the people and it's cheap lol. Prices for houses that you can't pass up, down the street is a house for sale....2 bedroom, 1 bath, full basement, decent size yard, for $15,000, oh with a garage. All you have to do in take the boards off the windows and and doors and you're ready to move in lol.
Tip Top - The little boy is doing everything in his power to not get in trouble with the police or thieves, that is why he is in the process of concealing the odors. He noticed that burning a pack of incense in the morning before leaving helps cover the odor throughout the day. When the little boy gets home he doesn't smell it anymore, until you go inside and you get a faint whiff of it, behind all the smell of incense. He was just looking for a more economical way, and permanent way of eliminating odors during the time he will be without a fan/filter.
That's a good idea Wee. I was thinking about getting some of those. They do work pretty good, and the idea of having it by the front door is good too. Knowing that the windows are very drafty I'm sure the smell would seep through. So far from what I can tell that Ona Gel is doing pretty decent down in the tent. As soon as I open the basement door I can smell that ona gel.Put a sign up at the front of your castle. use an automatic air freshener called air wick freshmatic that squeezes an aerosol every 9,18 or 36 minutes you choose with a switch inside, if you put 2-3 of these inside your front door you wont smell a thing outside except fresh smells. i find linen is the best mask, the vanilla one is horrible. it smeeeeeeeelllssss amazing outside my front door MmmmmmMMmmmmMMmm i live in a high rise block of flats with 6 front doors on an enclosed landing. and i had 12 barneys farm lsd.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Airwick-Freshmatic-Refill-VARIOUS-REFILLS-/400222924023?pt=UK_HomeGarden_CLV_Cleaning_CA&var=&hash=item9bffad4d48
By the sounds of things, the little boy is lucky he hasn't had rippers or cops pointing guns in his face yet (and that may still be on the cards). Your grow location is compromised. The very least you should do is get a new fan and CF, by any means necessary (loans, sell something, whatever), and even then it may be too late.
Someone has been through your shit and stolen some of your grow equipment, and someone else has pointed out the obvious grow smell (and it wouldn't surprise me if this guy knew about, or was in fact the person responsible for taking your shit in the first place.). Your grow is no longer secret, and you should consider moving, if this is at all possible. It strikes me that someone who would break into a house (and know enough to steal a fan and filter in particular) would be highly likely to return, if they thought there was a crop available to steal.
lets just presume it is kids that have broke in.That's a good idea Wee. I was thinking about getting some of those. They do work pretty good, and the idea of having it by the front door is good too. Knowing that the windows are very drafty I'm sure the smell would seep through. So far from what I can tell that Ona Gel is doing pretty decent down in the tent. As soon as I open the basement door I can smell that ona gel.
Tip Top, I know what you're saying, and yes it could be viewed as a riskier thing to do since someone broke into the house. But who knows if the person who broke in even knows what that fan was for, there was no other grow equipment in there for them to have suspicion of a grow. But that is the problem, no one knows for sure if they would have a clue or not, and that's the bad part. If the person knows and they decide to come back and I'm home, well, they won't be able to get anything. I'm a good shot, and a fast shot. I do want to get someone else to stop by and see if they smell anything. For the most part I am still able to smell it, especially if I've been away for the whole day, but that's usually only once I enter the house, and especially if I go in the tent. I have a trustworthy person who I can have stop by and give it a whiff for me though, just to make sure. Even if the ona gel works well, and the incense is working well, and the fan/filter set up works well, I'm still gonna be a little paranoid of having a smell leak out.
As for the bear traps....lol I wish I could set some up under every window, and on each step leading down to the basement. I think once I get that German Shepherd, Pit, Mastiff, or other kind of guard dog I won't really worry at all about someone breaking in. I'm also planning of getting this network security camera kit that comes with a monitor, 5 weather proof night vision cameras, that I would be able to view from any internet connection as well as any 3G phone. Sure, if I'm away and I'm checking in and see someone breaking in I won't really be able to do anything, but atleast I would see the person. I'll have one posted by the front door, the backdoor, back corner facing down the driveway towards the street, opposite side of the house, as well as on the back side looking through the back yard towards the alley. Every angle would be covered.
