Not yet but since you mentioned it I have been thinking about it. I use a tote to catch the run off from waterings so it doesnt get wet it there but still.

Looks like 3-4 of the og's made it through the initial shock, if I just keep em alive for 10 days they should root.

A buddy just gave me like 500 bagseeds he has been saving from his cali outdoor imports. This is gonna be fun.

Some plastic sheeting staple upside of the walls works well. Or tote lids or seedling trays work alright for run off/keeping clean/cleaning.

Hi shishkaboy, are you getting any smell outside your room ? I just bought a brand new 150 x 600 rhino filter and I've got good negative pressure on the 8x4 tent but I'm still getting a hint of a smell, can't figure it out.

Sometime at the peak of the night cycle (like 1-2 hrs before lights on), I can catch a whiff of only some of the stronger smelling cuts I keep.

But this only happens when they are really close to harvest. For the most part the scrubbed air goes straight out the window and it turns out that force out the window is enough to create negative pressure in the small bedroom.

This is my second layer of smell protection, so far so good but I am due for a fresh filter soon.

Is there any resistance or push off when you open your door? That will tell you if you have pressure in the room or not.

I use a cigarette or something burning to tell if it works properly. Shouldn't be able to smell it at all outside the room but should be able to smell if the living room is on fire, (if you can understand my cryptic analogy).

Sometimes just moving the exhaust to directly out the window will give you the just enough pressure to keep ALL smell in that room.

I gotcha, I don't have the window in the room where the tent is open and the door to the room is basically sealed off during lights off because I'm afraid o light leaks, cheap tent, thanks I think ye solved my problem, I'll keep ye posted, goodluck

You're on the ball shishkaboy, opened the window in the tent room and immediate improvement, thanks again, the only reason that I hadn't the window opened is because it's easy access for a burgler, two weeks left, I'll hang about, there's an old fire place in my room that's been blocked up but the chimney is still there, when I tried digging it out it the dust got into my ballasts so I stopped, when this grow is finished I'll get it done, gonna go perpetual like yourself Lotsa luck
