Ty,
It is hard for me to say for certain, as I may have over-provisioned my effort.
I made a DIY filter that ended up four feet long. It took 10 3 lb packets of
carbon pellets to fill it. ...but it worked.
I added a small Can Fan to boot, as I added a fluorescent lit Mothers Area
and found that even mothers can funk up a room. :0)
Someone more experienced may help more.
Good luck,
JD
P.S. It may be off-site, but the DIY filter I made was here

Honestly speaking, I dont do DIY work, there is a reason behind it but it will be too irrelevant to share it here. This brings me to which filter to buy? Thanks for the help chaps!!

Here is a winning strain for low odor....DNA Sharksbreath....I'm 26 days into flower and have no ambient smell what-so-ever. I get a light grapefruit smell if I'm clipping fan leaves or if I rub a top. I've totally removed my filter from the tent and wrapped in plastic for next grow. I've grown some strains that I thought were low odor, but this is by far the lowest so far. Looks like a hardy strain too...grow journal is in my signature below.

FYI Mountain Air Filters Are way better than Canfan

How do you know it seems like cheesy B.S marketing to me? Can makes a cheaper line of filter with a similar carbon to mountain and Can has told me
it is not as effective as there standard can filter line . I have a serious problem now. Legal sealed room but P.O. will be visiting for a family member who is moving in.
smell is strong running large room vented lights huge can 125 filter with 12 can fan ho scrubbing but its not enough. Do I have to run a small amount of negative pressure in the room and will that leek any smell outside if I run it through a good filter? HELP please from EXPERIENCED people

So on my first grow .....thought I had bugs, before I found this sit , and some where else online I read "one Onion two cloves garlic " gets rid of them ........ Maybe maybe not it wasn't bugs BUT it's smells like garlic and has for days !! I started in soil, like I said I'm new but you can't smell my 10 plants at all ! Just garlic and onion ! So I was thinking this would be great for someone growing out side in the back yard to keep the smell smelling like a garden and not a grow spot ! I know I know I have a lot to learn !

There aren't enough carbon filters in the world to mask the smell of OG#18. Even ozone generators aren't enough. This is a one in a million strain. If you have grown this then you know it's impossible to mask. The only thing I haven't tried us a positive ion generator.

I have zero tolerance and have managed two crops with my DIY filter.
I think that I might be pushing it with Crop #3, as the Cheese, OGs,
and PurpleBerries are getting pretty strong. I have a second filter to
switch on when it becomes necessary.
I can also replace the carbon in my filter. This will cost about $50 for
just the pellets, but I found a pretty good price.
Take care,
JD

I have two handy solutions depending on the size of your garden. If garden is small say 2-4 lights a good! carbon filter like rhino pro or something should be fine for at least 3-4 grows if you are paranoid or you just sense a tad of that green funky smell coming off the exhaust just get some ona block and shove it into the exhaust one or two will do the trick with a few holes drilled on top. Anything much bigger than that a carbon filter will not cut it. I would have different exhausting point in the room all with carbon filters obviously and exhausting air into a O3 poison room. This room needs to be of a decent enough size and have ozone generators but set them to work so that O3 levels are higher than normal and then exhaust that air still with! a carbon filter out the chimney. If you dont have a chimney build! one because if sometimes O3 levels are too high and relative humidity is higher than 60-70% small particles of bleach will form and grass and other plants and even sometimes walls will change colour. If you exhaust it higher up and O3 levels are a bit too high bleach particles will fly away. Go slightly overboard on the ozone but not! too much, and still! use a carbon filter Just in case...
I have also seen someone simply putting 2 carbonfilters on the exhaust, one in the grow tent and another at the end of the exhaust. I did get the feeling that air flow got significantly reduced, but hey it didnt smell much at all.
Or the ultimate solution of all is to grow some old school northern lights and only have to worry about the smell when its drying. I would say northern lights smells as intense as some nice kush veging. I have grown northern lights without carbon filter just a bit ona block here and there without any problems but then having severe problem smoking it due to its stupid potency.
