odor control

I'd say the problem is the filter. With the correct size filter and a fan with enough CFM's you shouldn't have any issues with smell. Did you go with a 'cheap' filter to save a few $$? If so, you just learned a lesson. Open container of bleach is an open container of POISON !!!

soap powder in a dish, cat litter instead of a.carbon and I totally own my ona block by pouring a little water on it

obviously just open the window if you can

A good CF should work. Use a fan with 450cfm 6" or more. I hope your animals don't drink your bleach.

If you can smell your stuff outside that means your Carbon filter is either not up to the job or is worn out. You could always generate negative pressure out an exhaust in your house incorproating an inline ozone generator like this which would draw air INWARD from your windows to prevent smell from leaking and the ozone would absolutely neutralized the exhausted air

Blue air products makes an awesome inline ozone generator:

Is your fan on backwards?

You can use febreeze or glade air effects. Just make sure it's the liquid spray not the aerosol. You can just use that instead of bleach and put a small fan over it to fill the room with a better smell. It's a hell of a lot cheaper than ONA and it works to help mask any lingering smells left over from your CF.

You know, i want to try to put some of those Dryer sheets over the fan filters, i think that will be it extra stealthy and make the room smell nice. Not sure how well it would work, but those things are pretty potent smelling

put fabric softener in the bucket.

There isnt anything wrong with my cf. There was a while ago I guess it got wet because of too much humidity and at the peak of flower I could smell it outside clear as a bell. I had to pull the ducting going outside and just let it run inside till I got the cf dry again. That works fine now.

I dont know if I can explain my set up but as you know it always changes and you try to get it just right and what works at the time. Right now I have two exhaust going on both sides of the house one is ground floor where the meter man can walk by and the other is a second floor window which is that bathroom. Right now I am considering pumping the ground floor upstairs through the house ducting (straight shot no probs with that) and from there it gets scrubbed again through that room and out the bathroom window which smells like fabric softener (if I use that). I may do that just so I know I am not exhausting where somebody can see, smell and feel the air coming out. Well actually you cant see or feel that as I have something in front of it but anyways.... You wont be able to tell from the second story window. I am starting to think that is the best way - have it scrubbed again.

Its warmer here have to be proactive right now windows are open. People are hanging out since its warmer dont need smells flying around. Need to think about heat control, airflow and odor and get that dialed in so I dont have any issues about it like last year.

A little bit of extra effort to help control odor goes a long way. Im going to try dryer sheets to and put like three on a string and then stick it in my ducting to see how long that lasts at the least it will make the house smell good or it will smell going outside if I leave it the way it is. Trying it isnt going to hurt a thing and I wont know till I do.

Right Fellas. One thing I have learned its better to address problems before it happens then that way it doesnt happen.

no lol good one though.

The fabric softener is a good idea.

I guess, all you gotta do is arrange your grow room better. Or move it into another room. Summer is going to get hotter than crap. You need an Ac unit bad. Get an Ozone Generator. Do something!!! lol.
