Just wanted to thank you for this story. This was the final thing that pushed me over to get a proper filter and fan. Until now I've been trying to be a cheap bastard and do a diy filter and weak ass fan. The only thing that could possibly get my grow discovered is smell. What's 45 euro to...

Whoa.. Those are some sick deals. I wish I didn't live in fucking europe.

Man... I am so green with jealousy. We're out here hiding in attics and dark closets while you're building an empire, and completely legal as far as local authorities are concerned. Great job man, looks amazing.

Are you doing anything for CO2? I'm in an enclosed attic and kinda worried about the CO2 content. Big CO2 tanks are too high profile in my nosey neighborhood. I'm thinking about just opening the attic up daily and blowing fresh air in with a fan.

Looks sick man. I wish I had that much attic space. I'm growing in a 4'x4'5' attic space. Don't listen to any haters, if you can keep it cool, attics work great. The chances of a guest stumbling on your grow room is near zero. Hope to see your progress! If you don't mind, how did you...

I'm not an expert by any means, but I see nobody else has answered so I guess I could throw my 2 cents in, take it or leave it. - I personally wouldn't go for an HPS in such a small space, even with a cool tube. - You could try a 90 watt LED with two cfls to get a good combo going. I'm doing...

I'm still worried about the CO2. I live in central europe so there is no central air system moving air through the house. The attic space is SMALL, enclosed, and will likely be very stuffy. I don't see how microscopic cracks or holes in the attic can possibly supply enough CO2 for 2-3 full...

I stand corrected on the filter position, I'm sorry. I already have the intake fan, so I think I'll just keep it anyway. As far as the CO2 goes, I'm in a sealed attic. Without CO2 won't the attic just fill up with oxygen? There has to be a way to get CO2 in there right? Thanks for the help.

Hey bro, what strain are you smoking right now? Because it must be some gooood shit. I said 95% of filters are on the OUTSIDE, not inside. You're the one who originally suggested to put it on the inside, which I thought was rather abnormal. I don't see any reason to do passive exhaust. My...

Well, considering I only have two plants, in an enclosed box with a carbon filter, in an attic, behind a fake wall, I don't think the smell will be that much more. However, I'm hoping the dog would've given so many false hints by the time they got to the attic that he would have lost his...

95% of carbon filters seem to be on the outside, and the guy who did the design for this DIY filter said when tried both ways, it made no difference, so I think it'll be fine on the outside. Second, you have to have an intake and an exhaust. The box is closed off. If you're just pushing out...

Yeah, I thought about that, but I figured because the box is in a small, enclosed attic space with no ventilation to the outside world, the c02 would eventually make its' way back to the intake fan. I'm primarily concerned with just boosting the CO2 to the whole attic, (which is very small...

Take a look at Wolfman Zen's DIY Carbon Filter. I'm in the process of building one myself for my growbox. Everybody on that thread seemed to really, really love it and say that it did a very good job of odor control, plus you're looking at $10 tops in costs. Hope that helps.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback! As soon as my stuff gets in I'm going to start detailing the building of the box via pictures in this thread, so check back. As far as the CFLs go, I've heard the 135w blackstars do GREAT in veg, but are kinda lacking in flowering, so I think I'm only going...

They look great, man! I can't wait to get mine going!

I'm not so sure they could be positive that I'm fucking with their dog's nose. Either way, I feel like my fake wall could stand up pretty well to a manual inspection, it's only the dog I'm worried about!

Yes!! This is exactly what I'm talking about! It would be for his nose like trying to find a specific piece of cheese in a cheese factory, or a specific pin in a stack of pins. The trick I think will be to get it so that no humans can smell it, but that a dog would go bonkers and be...

Looks great man! I used sketchup to do mine too. It's nice to be able to get a clean picture of what it's going to look like before you build. Also looks like you used the same plant model :P

LOL, totally digging the strain name, highly appropriate! They look good man!

We all agree that in this situation prevention is the best medicine. Honestly, if you're having a search, you're already fucked, but you can hopefully at least make them look over your growbox itself. I realize you can't defeat a dogs nose, so I feel you have to overwhelm it. I have a big dog...
