Will this carbon filter work???

Hey!
Have made two carbon filters. I could not fit more carbon into them than this, and were wondering if it was enough?
I took a picture when I held them up to a light source.
So, where it´s black it´s pellets and where it´s light there´s not pellets.

Yes it will work somewhat it depends on the amount of plants u will have where there arnt pellets the smell will go through so u will still probably smell it but it's a good start it should help u out a little bit. And is ur exhaust powerful enough to pull through that filter?. I'm doin my first I door grow so I'm no expert by any means I'm just tellin u what I've learned from research. Anywhere where they're are no pelleted smell will get through it and also if ur grow space isn't completely sealed besides the intake and exhaust the smell will leak through any cracks

sure any filter is better then no filter . I don't have a carbon filter . I open my windows and doors often to air out. works the best for me. honestly its not that bad if you air the shit out daily .

I have the ona gel I works very well however it does not last a long time. I empty a few globs of the stuff on to a tray in the 8AM and its all dried out and gone by 8pm.

Have you tried just drilling holes into the lid and leaving it in your grow box? I'd imagine that if you leave all the capsules exposed out in the open it would dry out a whole lot faster. I have never tried them but I have read top growers using them for a couple months.
