odor

Haven't had a problem with odor yet bc i'm only into week 3 of 5 vegging. but i'm thinking ahead. I'm using an armoire with 3 plants. don't really have room for a carbon filter. whats my next best option? I'm thinking a combination of an air purifier, some febreeze, some kind of plug ins and some kind of odor absorber. I was reading a post about something called an air sponge.... but idk how well that works. Ordor control is extra important for me bc i'm growing in an apt. so i have neighbors in close range. i don't mind the smell being in my apt but can't afford for the neighbors smelling it. all advice is NEEDED and APPRECIATED!!!!!!!

Hi,

I recently had to try and deal with my odor problem and I had the same problem as you with regards to the carbon filter. Nothing you really do will completely get rid of that weed smell apart from a carbon filter. But you certainly help reduce the strength of the odor. A couple of things I did was:

Make an Ona Bucket. This is basically a small bucket with holes drilled in the top half. You fill the bucket with a combination of ona gel and water, then attach a fan at the top of the bucket blowing in. The idea is that it sucks the air in from your grow room into the bucket and the ona crystals neutralize the odor and the fresh air is blow out of the holes in the top half of the bucket.

Another thing I did was have the air venting out of my cupboard into a cardboard box with holes and inside the box was a Ona Block.

Both of these worked upto a point then it got hot and I had to have my cupboard door open and then they really werent enough. So I got a small carbon filter and exhaust fan in the end. The total cost was only £50 but when you think how much it would cost to constantly buy odor prevention (trust me i spent over £50 haha) you might aswell invest in proper odor control. I had the same worries as you thinking I wouldnt be able to fit it into my stealth set-up but trust me the one i got isnt big and the exhaust fan is only 100mm.

What exactley is your set-up?

Take it easy,

Peace
