I am looking for an alternative to using a carbon filter and fan to keep odor under control. I can't afford a filter and fan combo but need to try to keep odor to a minimum.
Can anyone who has first hand experience please let me know whats worked for them?
be careful with odour controlling gels and things like that.. a guy i know uses this type or used to use this type of odour control and the smell of the gel or what ever he used i cant remember the brand but it made the weed taste like air freshener..
The gels are worthless. I bought some when I first started and they did not do a darn thing. Put them near my cats litter box before I threw them out.
A carbon filter with a proper fan is cheaper than bail or being burglarized. No ways around it.
I also tried a small ozone ball ( $$) , not effective. Near the litter box it was ok.
I started without it and exhausted outside. It got stinky quick. Had to go buy they filter. I use an air purifier with a carbon sleeve on it for curing my buds. It's in the same room when they are drying out. Cuts smell about 70%, but nothing like the carbon filter.
Phresh filters are quite good. When used properly , they can last 2 years and are not much more than can filters which only last one.
hydro wholesale has some combos of 4 inch fans and fiter pretty cheap and they will work.I ran a 7x7 flower room and ran the filter and fan combo for an 8x8 area and it worked fine for a year,fan and filter was under 200 bucks if your pinched.I run the 6x24 phresh now and its 200 bucks but I cant smell anything even right up on the plants
Phresh filters cheap and effective had mine for about maybe 8 months now still working and it was a one I traded a homie that had already used it one run....Works bomb i think he paid 120$ for the filter and I got a 6'' fan from ebay for 115$ borrow the cash if u have to bro don't caught cuz of the smell.Good luck.
Nothing will work except a fan/filter. Trust me. You can get a fan and fiter on ebay for under 150.00 total for both. Sometimes around 120.00 it just depends.. If I were you I would start saving right now. Security is everything.
