i will be growing in a wardrobe and was wondering what type of carbon filter would be best, the zen carbon filter or this one over 2 or 3 fans https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/63004-my-3-carbon-filter.html ill be doing 3 plants,which filter would be best do completly remove smell, the window where the wardrobe is will be open almost 24 hours a day, the room where the wardrobe is the upstairs front room so the smell has to be unnoticabl from the outside.

p.s sorry bout spelling but this purple haze is piiiffff

If you absolutely can't take chances then go with a can fan and make sure your wardrobe has negative pressure.

Well negative pressure is when you only have exhaust fans running to pull the air out with no or passive intake. This will create a negative pressure in a sealed room as air is only being pulled out but not in.

i was planning on putting a mini fan blowing air around to cool things down, with a hole filled with a pc fan blowing air through a carbon filter, i have 3 pc fans, so i was wondering if it would be best to use just one on a zen filter or all three on the other type.

The only zen filter I can find is a water filter. Is this going to be a DIY modification? I can understand wanting to save money, and have used DIY scrubbers in the past, but it was a mistake. My scrubber worked okay, but not great. I am currently running a can scrubber and can fan and there is absolutely zero smell in my flowering room, just the way I want it.

Negative pressure is important because you don't want to have unscrubbed air being pushed out of your grow space.

the zen filter is a DIY filter on here, it looked okay and i was thinking to use it with some ona gel to get rid of the smell, would it work?
