I have htg filters n tbh they dont work as well as the really heavy phresh filters i just bought..

Also leather , have a buddy always was gettin told he reeked couldn't figure out wtf it was .... Well it was a leather belt he put on everyday.... Good luck and get a filter bigger then ya need....

okay, I will buy a new filter

What is a reasonable amount for a solid filter? I have roughly 175sqft I need to scrub

I have had good experience with Can, Active Air, Phat, and Phresh. I have not had good experience with the generic filters you can get at HTG or Lighthouse Hydro.
 
With real stinky shit, I can burn through a can-lite 8", which is 50 lbs of carbon in about 5 months. For me, Carbon filtration in the room and Ozone outside the room.

Well thanks for the help everyone!

I ordered two 8"x24" phresh filters for $250 shipped. I cant wait to see how well they work against my HTG filters.

Good luck, let us know how they work out for you. I spent the $ for a MountainAir and it definitely worked much better than the generic crap I was using before, although it still gets a little stinkier than I'd like in late flowering/drying! The odor went from DAMN that smells like some good ass weed to, did I just get a whiff of pot? Nah...

My 2 filters should the hell up a couple two or tree days ago. The first thing I noticed about those two ol'cans is their lil inch worm foot print and their anorexic weight compared to my old bigass HGL dinosaur lookin things.. They are real light weight which means I aint busting my ballz movin'em and I can actual hang the sons'ofbitchs above my head.... but overall construction of these hoes...is da same. So I guess ima gonna see how these shit cans work.

I dont know if they are actually working better because I cant smell anything, my old sniffer is shot. I'll have to wait for someone to stop by and tell me if my joint smells. They are nice filters no doubt, and if they last as long as I have read, then I will for sure be sticking with these beasts.

The thing about my bloom room is there are plants constantly budding and buds constantly drying (for the most part) so there is a lot of shit going on that the filter has to filter out. Ya feelin' me?

Maybe I need more then one filter in the ol'bloom room. Maybe I need more then one bloom room ;)
