Carbon Filter?

[welcometotherealworld]

Hi guys. My grow room is just a room, so there is no exhaust outtake. The temp is fine (even with the door closed). What could I use to get rid of the smell? I was thinking of hooking up a DIY filter to the end of my 600w light (the fan blows air from the other side) or just placing some carbon filters by the bottom of the door. I also have scented candles and plug ins in other areas of the house. My house is secluded so I am not extremely worried, but I would like the smell gone just to be sure. Thanks

haven't you a air vent that the extraction can go in? my goes in the chimney.

I have my A/C vent...but air comes IN through that way, so that wouldnt work with extraction right? There is an attic access as well...haha

yep good idea to get the smell going into the attic,is it your attic and not semi house? you didnt mention filter,have you got one?

Yeah I was just going to build one with a carbon filter sheet. So my question now is: where would the ducting start since my plants are sitting in the middle of a room (on my light?)? Do I put the filter on right there next to the plants/light (attached to the ducting of course) or do I put it right where the ducting will go to the attic? One last question: Where can I get a 6 inch diameter fan for cheap? Thanks for taking time to look at the post, will use thank button

plants on bottom,light just above plants and filter above ther light..you would have to find a way to hang the carbon filter and the inline fan and the conducting can go to your attic


ignore the cooltube but this is how it would go normally..6in fan would be ebay or greens horticulture

yep as above. you can buy fold away stands that you can set all this up on so you havent got to be attaching shit to the ceiling. even an old clothes rail would do the trick to hang your fan and filter from
