WOW! Person-about-to-get-busted-alert. Short of saying "DUMMY!", dont grow in an apartment where you have to ventilate with can filters and 450cfm of air.


YOUR NEIGHBORS WILL SMELL IT AS SOON AS WEEK 5 or 6 FLOWERING!!

ESPECIALLY if you have a neighbor ABOVE YOU in an APARTMENT. HEAT RISES!

The smell of FRESH GROWING herb is different than the shit in a bag too. Most cops know the difference!

yea yall probly right...

thats y i was asking if i could cool the air befroe it came out the end of duct on the cooltube, so i could just put a carbon filter on the end of it and it will eliminate smell and ventilate the grow space. Thinking about doing a stealth grow outide the closet and by my bed with a custom built grow box that will look like a big dresser

I think that's a much safer & more reasonable idea than dicking around cutting holes in the apartment. Sorry brah but that just sounds like trouble with a capital T! Good luck.

The Ice Flow (aka a Transmission Cooler available at AutoZone for a third of the price) requires a water chiller, holding tank, pumps, tubing, and all that risk of water. Thats a lot of work for exhausting a closet. Easier to keep the closet door open instead! :)

Venting it into the walls/between floors in an apartment building, or even a house really, is bad. I'm sure the air from a grow room is a bit humid. You don't want moisture build up inside of walls. I assume you don't have a window. Maybe you can make your own cooling system like this:



The same idea should work inside of ducts. You can buy copper tubing from most hardware stores. The idea being to create a coil or something similar with lots of available surface area for air to pass over. Run cool water through one side of the tubing, either using a pump or gravity. Recycle the warm water. It won't be super efficient but it should cool the air some. With patience, money and hard work you could probably build a rudimentary freon system. Oh, and keep in mind that there will be condensation on the tubing. So don't let it drip directly into your ducts.
