Emergency Grow Cab

So I am in the process of moving into a new space that will allow me to grow...I hope. Yet the problem is that I might still experience the need to stop my grow for about 12-20 hrs. So I am thinking of lining a large box with black and white poly. Attaching a two 120mm inline fans and diy carbon filters. Do you think this would be good enough to contain the smell in case of emergency? Even with plants that are 6-8 weeks in flowering.

Edit: Forgot to mention I will have 12 plants in 32 oz containers which would have been flowering under 400w hps
 
the only way to really keep the smell out is to hook your ducting to your toilet. so when u have company all u do is flush your toilet to keep the smell down
 
In my main grow room I will have a carbon filter and fan, but there might be a time where I will have to move my plants for about 12-20 hrs. So I wanted to build something that will contain the smell temporally.

Thanks for the response through. +rep
 
if you are moving to a new location,why not wrap them in garbage bags. if you can time it right,wrap them at the begining of the dark cycle & hopefully they will only loose a few hrs of daylight.if bagged & then put in boxes(& seal it also), you should have very little if any smell.
 
Again thanks for the reply but I do not think anyone get where I am getting at. I might have a small interruption during my grow at any time. I want to get at least one grow off before I move again in 3 months. I wanted to make a emergency cab just in case, no lights. I would just hold the smell of the plants for about 12-20 hrs, and it would have to look like nothing at of the ordinary. Also cheap since I don't feel like dropping loot on something that will only be used for max 20 hrs. I was thinking a cardboard box around 2x2x3, with two 120mm inlines around 80cfm each, and each with a zen diy carbon filter. +rep anyway for replying

Edit: Forgot to mention that the box will be lined with black and white poly.
 
The 2 120mm should do just fine even more cause your not doing lights just kinda a box cover housing over the plants with ventilation. At least that what im gettin out of it
 
Sounds like you could take an old fridge and put it to good use, Check your local craigslist and everything. ;)..
 
id build a box out of wood make sure you can move it in and out of the doors. im ok with wood working not everyone is. also maybe just a ply wood bottom on a card board box screw the pots down to it so if you move it it wont slide. id also garbage bag the polant before boxing it. and also do what you said and line it with poly. depending on the strain. id prob not take the risk tho. and just wait.
