You probably don't need to worry about it as long as you keep it in constant veg. If it becomes a problem you can build a cheap filter with activated carbon and an air filter.

One to two to be on the safe side of things.

Always have a back-up.

Besides, you'll be replacing your mothers every once in a while.. they are only viable as long as the root structure doesn't overgrow its environment.

They should be fed veg nutes to promote stems and bush. You want nice big stems for clones.. plenty of leaves to get that light on them to produce roots.. read about Al B. Fuct's cloning and what not.. but just read.. it is all there.

If you want to keep a mother plant for a long time try this. You could probably grow two mother plants in this. They are pricey but well worth it IMO. The 5 gallon buckets are good for growth from 3-18 months after that youll need to transplant & I think this is perfect for those who want to keep valuable mother plants.

A simple bucket with dirt would work also.
 
Yo, could you do me a favor and post some pics of your motherplants? I'm trying my hand at 4 different types of genetics for motherplants and I'm curious to see how other people get down.

Peace,
