Just wanted to point out a really good way to cover up smell in your room/house

my g/f bought a couple of cats. Those fukin things piss on clothes when they get the chance. If you don't mind the smell of cat piss, I bet that'd cover up the smell too.

i just did a quick google search and it seems like 2 oz. essential oil of lemongrass would run around 15 bucks or so. does that sound about right? maybe it's even cheaper in larger quantities but that's not too bad a price tag. do you put water in the bucket or just the oil? i just got the idea to put water in the bucket with the oil and use an airstone to agitate the water and sort of "toss" the smell around. i have a lot of earthy crunchy stores around here and i bet i could get at least a small amount to try out. i just have a bitty veg tent and a flower closet with a 400w hps.

lol. i can say from experience that a dirty cat box does wonders for covering up the smell of a grow. not a particularly appetizing aroma but it does work. not too sanitary, though.

it's an interesting idea and i'm going to check it out.

along with a carbon filter, i used to use ozium in the timer release set up. for some reason, i couldn't find any of the short ozium cans so i got some glade plug ins. i like them and they're pretty cheap. one by the front door and one by the back and i have one for the grow room that i used when my water heater burst and they were standing 6 feet from my grow while replacing it! the carbon filter is cool and all but to be effective they can get pretty loud. when someone is standing right next to the grow room door, i like the added security of something that is producing or killing odors.

Well, for me if I smelt Ozium or Ona, that would be a pretty big tip off for me personally. Cops too maybe. No doubt carbon filters can be loud, but you can also do stuff to minimize the sound output. You can get mufflers, you can build a box around your fan and sound proof it, etc.

yeah ozium was pretty popular with growers for quite awhile. these plug ins have some nice odors and they cover a big area.

i have a pretty big phresh filter and a speed controller. turning the fan down helped reduce the noise but it also wasn't clearing the room as quick. i'm in flower now and oh that smell!

Where would you find the oil locally. What kind of store would carry it. What is the oil normally used for???

Try it you will like it!

These are great, but unfortunately only last a couple of days. But if you are in a jam, throw one on your AC filter and your whole house will smell good. Couple of $ at Homedepot/lowes. This one smells like clean laundry...easy sell if you have to "clean up" for guests

we would stuff the dryer sheets in a 20oz soda bottle and cut a hole in the bottom, we called it a "flowbie" lol
