Activated charcoal filters are not available in my country. I had to move mountains to get the 300W LED grow light. I am wondering if the one I plan to make with the PC fans is going to work. I left an image of how I plant to set up my grow space. All advice is appreciated, thank you.
Is this DIY air scrubber going to work? *Graphics included*

i do not think it will work well
can u get your hands on a 4 inch booster fan

looks like this .......u might have to wire your own plug on it
but that fan type will do u better........for a carbon filter to be effective it has to have the air drawlen over it to remove the stink so that 12 inch fan pushing air in tho the front like that will not work well
that is how it should basically look if u build one .......i have heard of ppl using panty hose and window screens(layer 3 4 times)
if your are moving only air with a PC fan u might think about using active carbon mats (they are used in fish water filters .....can get from a pet supply store in big sheets
but a mat infront of the fan and behide the fan should work 30/45 days then u need to change them
