I have a 100 year old house, and have my medical grow in my basement. Even with a can 66 filter, 424cfm inline fan, venting into the chimney it still reeks inside and outside of my house....
The room I am using is 12'x6'x6' and I am running a can 66 filter and 424cfm 6" inline fan. I have great airflow in the room, however the walls in the room are uninsulated block. I have a passive 6" intake pulling air from outside.
I am not sure if the filter is ineffective or smell is seeping out through the uninsulated basement walls into the rest of the house and outside, but if I where a betting man I would say it's due to the uninsulated and unsealed grow room....
So my question is... how can I cheaply seal the grow room? If I seal the room with 6 mil plastic sheeting and duct tape will the negative pressure in the room be enough to get rid of the odor issue? Or will it be necessary to insulate and seal the grow room to control the smell? If so what's the cheapest way to do this?
I am 6 weeks into flower and the smell is getting to the point where the neighbors are going to start noticing so I need to get this fixed today!
Thanks in advance for any advice!
