Hey hey everybody
I started this thread because, well, I'm having one hell of a time controling the smell from my PC case grow.
I've tried all manners of DIY carbon filters except for Red's deisgn (because it would look really out of place next to a PC case and kill the stealth factor) and no matter what I do it seems like I can't get the smell under control.
So far the best option I've found was to use True Air replacement carbon filter pads and sandwich them up against my 50 and 80 cfm PC fans along with some dryer sheets. I also have an ONA block sitting ontop of the computer cases.
Before that I tried refillable bags of activated carbon from the pet stores and bulk carbon in all sorts of home made carbon filter designs. But even with a heavy load of carbon and ONA blocks my computer room still reeks like the chronic every time me or my fiance walks in there. Just for reference I'm growing Sensi Seeds's Northern Lights, Sensi Seeds's Skunk #1, Serious Seeds's Bubblegum, and DJ Short's True Blueberry. It seems like the Skunk #1 and the True Blueberry are the main offenders odor wise.
Basicly I'm growing with two PC cases setup underneath my desk so any design has to be pretty low key and not look too out of place on a computer. Thus the reason I couldn't really use Red's carbon filter design.
The can style carbon filter's are just too damn big for my setup and I reaaaally don't want to use Ozone due to the extremely small room the cases are in. Using Ozone in such a small place where my fiance and I sit and work all the time seems like just a huge health hazard to me. Plus my fiance says "No ozone, no way, no how. Do it without ozone or ditch the grow."
So after trying lots of activated carbon doubled up with dryer sheets and ONA blocks with no success in controling the odor, the only thing left I can think of would be using some negative ion generators in the room as well.
Does anyone have any recommendation for a good ionizer that would help kill the ganja smell for my micro grow? Or any other suggestions (other than Ozone) that might help a brother out here?
