What’s your guys’ tricks? Carbon filter (phresh brand) isn’t cutting it. How do you guys fly under the nose radar?
Try a bigger extraction fan
I run an 8" in an 8x8 room inside of a 4x4 tent. I don’t think I can go much bigger practically
I know a lot of people trying to fly under the radar look for strains that are stealthy by nature. It sucks for the guy that likes smoking loud weed, but if it keeps you safe that’s what’s important. Hopefully it will soon be legal everywhere after the feds see the effects of legalization.
Ona deodorizer block.
Ozone generator.
I won’t sacrifice growing mildness. That’s not in the cards. I heard ozone generators are dangerous. I considered ona. Does it work?
Ona is really good. Alone I think it would not cut it. The carbon filter should be working. The cfm specs from the filter match the fan ? Any chance that this filter got much humidity and was old stock or something ?
I use the ona dispenser refil inside one of these air freshner dispensers (I heard that the dispenser machine from ona sux)
Yeah, you could be moving the air through the filter to fast. Use a variable speed control to slow it down. Also you can add a scruber fan and filter.
The cfm of my fan is exactly the recommended cfm from phresh
I bought the filter from my local store. I don’t think it would have been old stock
Well, if your temperatures are not a problem, slow down a bit could help.
Here I use like 40% less than the recomended cfm
@Scissor-Hanz said 2 great options, ozone is only harmful in concentrated ppm. If you keep ppm low, IE buy a uv ozone machine for your specific size area and shut off 30 minutes prior to entry. In the grow space it will cut down on smells/mold/fungus etc … If its going to be in the grow space make sure its a UV Ozone as the others produce an acid that is harmful to your plants. But it will take the smell out
I use ozone generators I run them at the lowest setting needed to keep things smelling clean, I have a low profile window fan wedged in a downstairs fireplace flue that I can run if things get bad, a small fire in an upstairs fireplace will cancel any smell
@GumbyBuds is it possible to put an ozone generator in the exhaust
Yes they sell some that fit in 6" ducting ill find a link
Here is one im looking at
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008VTWVBS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_.IDkAbMC1KZA2
create negative pressure for your grow area… your not scrubbing all the air leaving the area… don’t matter how big this or that is or how much air your moving about the space… your leaking…
I can assure you that there is plenty of negative pressure. The door is difficult to open and is sucked closed immediately
then your defying science… not gonna fix that…
If you need help with sizing or which model you need LMK.
