I can add that this DIY Filter also works.

I made one.

I must report that I have since bought a Fan Can and it outperforms
my own built filter. It was still an interesting experience.

Take care,

JD

Those are great prices. I would love to find a local reseller, to avoid
the cost of shipping.

Thanks for sharing.

Those prices include free shipping. My local store is outrageous on all his prices. For example an 8 filter that I bought online for $110, he wants $225. 8' Hydrofarm fan I can buy new on Ebay for $100 free shipping, he wants $180 & his bulbs are just through the roof. He does good business though(amazing) I only buy soil there.

When you fart?

LOL, well, it depends on the breed.

Other factors like the soil, the temp, etc can be a factor.

I have found that it does not get really bad until a few
week into flowering and dangerous :0) after week 6 or 7.

Good luck,

JD

You will want to get a filter asap. You are used to the smell & can't notice it like someone who has not been around it. If you can even smell a hint, it stinks. I don't skimp on this part of growing. I pony up & pay for a good filter, & they last like a year and half to 2 yrs.

LOL, or go even further an imagine that you are the Cop.

I would fucking know, I can tell you that. This is what drives me.

Reloader is spot on: if you get the hint of a whiff of a scent, then
someone else, someone not so acclimated to the scent, will smell
a riot.

As usually new teetotalers are the worst.

Filters work. You will rock.

Due to the sheer size of our operation we just run ozone into our vents and it works fine! Ozone has worked great for large facilities up here for years and seems to be the go to for the large commercial ventures!

I bought one of the ONA automatic mist dispensers. At a pre-set interval, it will spray a quick burst of aerosol. Good idea, but the dispenser itself is a piece of crap. By poor design, the spray head for the can will gradually move to the side over time and the spray will not exit the dispenser. Probably it can be jerry-rigged to prevent this, but I prefer products that work properly without jerry-rigging. Anybody know of a dispenser that is reliably designed?

Ozone generators work but ozone O3 can be harmful to plants in huge amounts so make sure you are exhausting the O3 out generally the only people who use ozone generators are huge farmers in city settings and they attach an inline ozone generator to their carbon filter to make sure the air being exhausted is fully deodorized.

Put a piece of cardboard under your can in the dispenser it will make it fit tighter. I know it's jerry rigging it but ONA sprays are just so much more potent than their competition.

I think cardboard under the can would raise the height and thereby affect the spray "dose". What I wound up doing was just taking a small piece of duct tape and taping the bottom of the can to the unit housing. This prevents rotational movement and keeps the nozzle pointed correctly. Thanks anyways. (Note to potential users: don't use the worthless included "sticky pad" to hang the unit. Put a screw in the drywall and hang it from that.)

UV light type ozone generator question: Al B. Fuct has stated that ozone can actually kill the odor directly on the buds, which he considered to a be a bad thing. Well, that's exactly what I want. Question is, does this level of ozone production affect the potency of the buds? I wouldn't think so, but I have never used an ozone generator of any type before.

Lacking any feedback, I went ahead and bought a 5,000^3 UV ozone generator and am going to bombard my plants with ozone around the clock. This will be part of a three-pronged approach using Mountain Air carbon filter, ONA time-mist dispenser, and ozone generator. If all that doesn't eliminate the odor issue, I will find another hobby.
