My plants ain't in flowering yet but I just want to be ready, so if anyone can tell me cheap odor remover? I was thinking of getting ONA pro or citrus magic since I am on a budget, any help is great

ONA gels and alternatives work ok but they mask the odor they do not remove it. Like many others I would point you to a carbon
scrubber and its the only way I feel safe but I dont know what your setup is or how stealthy you are trying to be. I used ONA gel
for my first 2 plants then decided it did not cover the smell enough.

don't be on a TOO SMALL budget when buying odor control stuff or attorneys, and in some cases doctors. htg supply has some decent priced fan/filter combos. personally I'd pay twice the price somewhere else for something better but if you're on a budget that would be the place to start.

There are lots and lots and lots of good tutorials for DIY carbon scrubbers out there. I built one for about $30 in materials, activated carbon, and from stuff that I had laying around. It works great.

thanks for the advice, i still got plenty of time before its in its flowering stage, i think i might buy ONA just for a cover up so it gives me time to setup and build my own carbon scrubbers

would a Ozone generator work on smell?? im growing it in my room i have plenty space to move it around and have one window, and two skylight windows, i dont care if the smell gets out throw the skylight windows but I'm just concerned on my one window cause outside is a house like 10-15 ft away, would putting this Ozone generator by that window, kill all the smell going out through there??

and found this
http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-Ozone-400.asp

is this product good?? and will it work??

It would probably take the smell away, but ozone damages organic matter. I don't think your plants would like it.
