Thank you Oliver! She is a frost maker for sure... 413 Chem is from Mycotek seeds. However I did not grow these seeds out. I was gifted a clone of her. Very nice genetics within mycoteks gear it seems. My first time running her.

Here is a description of the 413...


Mycotek - 413 Chem
Gorilla Dawg x Chem91IX

Indica: 60/40
THC: 20-26%
Flower Time:58-67 Days
Yield: Heavy
Aroma: Fuel / Sour / Skunk / Funk / Diesel

Welcome to the 413. Western Mass, the place where the legend of the Chem Dog was born. This cross is a Chem Dog layer cake like no other. A crop of these flowers will be a bountiful harvest of Chemmy goodness. Diesel on top of diesel the 413 Chem is a hybrid cross between our Gorilla Dawg and Chem 91ix. The Gorilla Dawg f1 mother we used for this project has all 4 Chem Dog cuts combined in a single cross using the GG4 clone only and 3 Chems from Top Dawg Seeds to glue them together. Chem 91, Chem 4, Chem D, and Chem Sis are all in her lineage and she does not disappoint. Our 91ix male only adds more Chem funk back into the equation. Expect vigorous plants that stack like monsters, clone easily, and have a down right diesel aroma wafting from them when you are anywhere near their vicinity. If the legend of the Dog is what you are after, look no further. You have found the 413 Chem

Alright guys, first off I would like to apologize it everyone for being so non attetlntive to my thread and replies and all. Life has been super busy lately and I promise things will pick up soon... Just had a hell of a lot going on as of late.

Second of all, I have a HUGE issue. As much as I LOVE the hell out of Chemdog and her super pungent stanky ass perfume, she is really beginning to overpower my carbon filters. Big time.

Me and the wife went shopping tonight and when we got home, I smelled the gals as soon as we were pulling into the driveway, car still rolling and Windows up. This is just too much...

Back when I first started flowering I out up two filters, two fans... Remember I had such an issue with controlling temps?? Well one of the key things I did was put in one phresh filter which is excellent and then one cheapo filter that I got back about 5 years ago in a grow tent set... You know, the super light shitty ones that just don't work that well at all once the girls start stankin? Reason for this at the time was to allow better and faster airflow to help control temps and keep the heat down since more air could be pulled through it.

So this brings me yo my question...

Is it okay to go ahead and remove my scrog net? I am way past stretch and of anything I guess I could stake up the plants branches and buds if they are flimsy which honestly they all seem to be pretty steady... I want to get back there to back and put up my other good heavy phresh filter, if I could do this I know for a fact I could cut down on the odor at least by 75%... I know this because last time I used the cheapo filter when I used to use grow tents and first got it, I had a terrible problem with odor. I removed the cheap filter after the first run and from that point forward I never had an issue once the phresh filters were used.

What do you guys think? I mean has to be better than getting busted I guess right? Or losing a few grams of lower buds... I honestly only think it would make a few degrees difference in temps if I put up the phresh... If anything I could always install a brand new window a.c. unit that I bought for my veg room to help control the temps as well.

Need some advice asap... This Is my first ever scrog.

Do it!

Always better safe than sorry.

Perhaps you'll have a shitload of tying up to do but at least you won't be busted.

My 2 cents.

Good point considering my (part-time) mail man is also a police officer...

First, I am going to try crawling back into that particular corner beneath that filter and remove the scrog screen just from the corner of the room and see if I can work it that way first... If not, the net will have to come down and I will resort to bamboo stakes and string. The odor is very present at my mailbox.

My only other option which I have done in the past during desperate times, during huge guerilla harvests, is to go out and find an actual freshly killed roadkill skunk and throw in the road close to my house. They smell for weeks.

Day 35 12/12 "week 5"

Well I was in the process of watering/feeding when the lights flipped out. Quickly dropped what I was doing, grabbed my "cheapo" phone and snapped a few pics as the lights were finishing the fade out. Wow... Things are bulking up very very nicely now. I had to run into the house to grab my green light to continue feeding without interrupting the lights out period.

Man this odor is sick! Of course in a good way, but in an illegal state! This shit reeks! If you have to be a stealth grower and marijuana is illegal in your home town I would STRONGLY advise against cultivating the Chemdog... Unless, you have excellent odor control. This line is no joke... Everytime I get close to the room, especially walking down the hall I smell so many different odors combined into one... From Rotten, musky, murky, musty skunk spray and rotting meat, to a mixture of pine, turpentine, gasoline and bleach... Topped off with some burnt rubber funk and a cinnamon spice.

Did not get around to changing out the filters this morning, but that is definitely my first priority when lights come on this evening.

One good thing is through the day when more people are out and about, the smell shouldn't be as strong as the exhaust fan does not kick in as often and blow the air directly out due to the cooler night period temps.

Anyway, here is best I could do with the cheap phone. Should have wiped the lens a little bit as I believe it have some dust and possible resin on it lol.

Damn man. I had the same issue with an ecsd clone from 07. I would pull up and could smell the flowers 15-20 feet from the house. Was in an illegal state then myself. Rented a uhaul van loaded up all 20 plants and took them to a friend's house in the country for the remaining month. Glad you're getting it under control..I'll never forget that day. Haha...Us growers have some crazy days right...

If you are running a tent I would say put a fan/ filter in the room the tent is in. Also unless you are using a massively oversized filter, filters need to be replaced atleat every other year. 5 years on a filter toss that and get a new one. Also,it's a good idea to write the purchase date then cover it with clear tape( so you don't erase it when cleaning. ) this way you can easily see when you need to change it out.

Well I am as far in the mountains as you can almost imagine possibly being in the appalachian mountains lol. The only problem I have is that one of the post workers is a police officer.... You can smell Chemdog in driveway, mailbox in driveway... Shiiiiit. Lol.
