carbon

Hi Guys, I hope everyone is doing well. Thought maybe I could get some information on carbon based fertilizers. Anyone have some experience on making them? Any good research starting points? So I have stumbled on some talks around these types of fertilizers being a must have on your feeding...

Hi guys Help please I have a black orchid 4 inch carbon filter in my grow tent , the induction fan is the correct way round but not alot of air is been expelled , should I remove the white material shroud from the filter as shown in the pic Cheers .

Hey guys! I have a few questions on filters. I’m growing indoors and I still live at home. Dad wasn’t too thrilled about me growing but still sees it as cool that I’m growing something and creating life. He DOESNT like the smell however. It hasn’t been too bad but I’m late into flower and now...

Your carbon filter becoming less effective? I do this every 2 grows, and have been using the same filter for over 5 years. I can't tell a difference in efficiency from the day it was new. Drill out rivets on fan end of filter. Remove foam ring and save. Fold outer netting down and the outside...

Hi everyone! here's my problem, I have a carbon filter that i forgot in a small shed not ventilated. It went from 30 degrees celsius (86F) to -30 degrees (-22F) for 2 winter and one summer. Do you think it's restorable and if yes how?

Hey everyone. Recently retrying a hydro setup after battling pythium in my last few DWC grows. The problem was even at nominal temperatures I would sustain pythium growth (I believe do to the addition of Microbes and Mycos). So this time, after extensive research I’m going to try a DWC grow...

Also does anyone have experience with PC fans and carbon filters? Or diy carbon filters in general.

Hey again RIU community. Just wanna say thanks to ya guys for literally answering every question I've had and every post has produced a reponse. Very much appreciated my friends :blsmoke: So here's the question! I'm really starting to narrow down on a materials list for my first grow. I've got...

Hey all, I am a first time grower with a very basic home made grow box. I have been looking for a carbon filter for the flowering stage but have seen several DIY filter methods online. Does anyone know if a DIY filter would work anywhere near as well as a mass manufactured filter?

Check it out. Cost me about $30 at Home Depot, $10 at another hardware store(prefilter) and $15 on Amazon for the carbon. Pretty simple, and seems like it's going to do the trick.

Would adding any crushed charcoals be beneficial to an organic grow? Using 10 gal. grow bags, and going no till.

Hellooo RIU Community! TL;DR Bought a homemade "RO" filter (not true RO). Water comes out at 6.6-6.8 pH and 0 ppm (EC unknown). Since filter is very new (have run less than 400 mL of water through it, since I haven't yet started grow), carbon precipitate still comes out in the water from the...

So I want to set up a decent sized stealthy perpetual grow in a spare room....inside the room I want to put a 4' x 8' flowering tent, and a sepperate 4' x 4' veg tent...This room only contains a sliding glass door. I was wondering If I could run a carbon filter from the flowering tent to another...

If I'm getting a vortex s line 6" fan (374cfm), would it be best to run a 6"x16" carbon filter(400cfm), or a 8"x20" carbon filter (730cfm)? Its for a 4x2" flower tent. I think the 6" is the best value, but I have seen some people use bigger filters than fans. I'm planning to use a variac 3 amp...

Yo rollers so I put my girlies in flower a week ago and hadn't installed my filter yet, so better start now b4 I need to panic. So I have 2x 6inch inline fans, one for my 4x2 and one for the 4x4. I was pulling air from the light straight out for both of them with the fan sitting directly ontop...
