I'm now on my 3rd carbon filter this year because of high humidity so just wondering how people managed to run humidity 70%+ and keep the carbon filter still filtering smells... I see loads of people on Instagram running close to 80% and I've asked them if they have smell problems and they say no....
I use viper pros but because I now follow vpd which I've noticed as a very good impact on my strains so I'd like to try and stick to the higher end of humidity instead of low, I'm on my 3rd carbon filter this year and I've just noticed this one is starting to let a little smell through now at 5 weeks into flower...
I've been thinking about using ozone inside the ducting but it vents outside where people are and I don't want anyone dropping dead outside my grow room
I've also been looking at the fairly new CarboAir filters, they make a few different types 50, 60 & 100mm of carbon inside, plus the outer sleeve is a lot thicker then standard around 6mm thick, I think most standard filters have 50mm carbon. I was thinking about getting the 100mm one but will this just be the same and stop filtering smells after a few weeks? Anyone in here tried these filters?
Or I was thinking about turning the room into a sealed room and using CO2 and then just having a filter scrubbing the air? Either way I need to spend some money but I don't know where to spend the money, 100mm carbon filter or sealed room with co2?
At the moment humidity is 65-70% sometimes might creap to 73% temperature dependent...
Room size is 12x8 but ceiling hight is only 5'10 up to 7ft so not sure if this factors into the problem?
