Smell Issue

Hippyfreak420 · Mar 23, 2010

ok, here's my issue

I got a room under the stairwell going into the basement. Mothers are on the bottom and flowering room is ontop.

I had a harvest bout 4 or 5 weeks ago and my house completly reaked of fresh growing weed... I've tried a DIY ozone generator and it made everyone in the house sick..

Next thing i tried was a DIY carbon air filter with a computer fan moving the air through the filter, i guess its not strong enough to move the air through all the activated carbon n filter n just blows back into the room... I've ordered a 12v squiral cage fan thats built for computer servers...

I'm trying to keep everything 12v so the elec bill won't go sky high, only thing runnin 120v is the lights and timers and maybe the pumps...

But noise is an issue with me as well, I hold all kinds of social parties with state officals (not cops) i'd be crazy as hell if I did...

So noise and smell are my biggest issues right now, if anyone could help me out i'd be greatfull

Peace Out bongsmilie

I'm only using a 150watt HPS bulb so heat isn't an issue.

duh noise is caused by the taking away of the smell.etc carbon filter/ masking agents/ozone = read before you start. you can go to jail kid.

Here's the fan I bought and its on the way

The carbon filter I made out of a high performance air filter for a car, it was like 10 bucks... Then went to the pet store and got 2 bags of activated carbon and filled up the air filter and put a mesh screen to hold all the carbon in and used a 3" pcp pipe and siliconed all the creases and attached a regular computer fan n didn't work out too well so that why I bought the fan above.. Hopefully that fan will work alot better and still be quite...

your sort of a prick man. the man is asking for help and your criticizing what he did wrong.

then he asks again.. then you ridicule him more

idiot.

and bro check out ONA's!! dont listen to this asshole, he wants to fight online. theres also an odor control thread too, im not sure, check that out man! GL

Fan, Filter and a sealed room. Such a small grow you could use a 4" inline fan and carbon scrubber. You can put a dimmer on the fan also to reduce noise, they run about 25 at the local shop.

You can use black and white poly to make the room. It's cheap and reflects great. then 9.99 for a zipper door for your tent. Here's a pic of mine.

I got all the pics off my phone and here they are, these are for you dimebagDICK

6 white widows @ 4 weeks into flowering

Here's the carbon filter I built

nordowell · Mar 26, 2010

i wouldnt skimp on a carbon filter, to me its the most important part of the room as it could save a great deal of pain and agony. do yourself a favor and buy a legit carbon filter like active air or can.

feva · Mar 26, 2010

yo i suggest ONA also it works pretty good grab a couple of them and set them just outside the grow area.

cannatari · Mar 26, 2010

Hey DIMEBAGDAN, how much did you yield off that plant on your avatar? Maybe you should switch to LED's.

Cheech Wizard · Mar 26, 2010

Yeah make a little room or go buy a cheap tent. I have 2 under my basement stairs! That way you could buy a cheap duct booster fan and a decent carbon filter and you will be golden.

Now ur talkin about some serious cash! led lights are newer and cost a hell of alot more! little 150 watters are around 250 300 bucks if im mistaken, please correct me! u could sound proof the room and then put a exhast fan in!! good luck man!!
