I am using "odor killer" gel.

I have a 6 inch fan that I might be able to hook up to a growbright carbon filter $59. But I haven't heard good reviews about them and the ones I have seen good reviews about are 125 dollars.

Does the ONA bucket work better than the carbon filters? Will low humidity make the gel dry out fast? I am working with 20% humidity remember.

I don't want a certain post. I want it to always link to the most recent post in my thread.

The ONA concentrate put into soil moist lasts a really good while. Carbon filters neutralize odor in 2 ways, ONA does it with 3 - so there is that piece.. If used as an ONA bucket, you'd grab cardboard, drill a few holes near the top of the bucket, put soil moist and some ONA concentrate in, not their pre-diluted stuff.. let the moist expand then put a lil' fan on top to force it through the drilled holes, works awesomely.

IMO the ONA bucket will help but it will not do what the carbon filter will do....Flat out....your best bet is a carbon filter because it smells now but just wait a few weeks and the odor is gonna triple

I am basing what I said with the thought that you are moving what passes through the filter to the atsmophere ( outside )

I guess it comes down to how much is available in the way of finances vs how many plants, total CF you have to try to control, and a few other variables. Optimal would be both, with ONA being initial, then pre-filter, carbon, then perhaps something else additional. Optimal for situation and finances is the goal, above all else. :)

I really do not want to spend any more money on things that won't kill the odor. I just need to know which carbon filter to get for my next grow.

Normal vs Concentrate makes the difference with ONA, and although ONA can have a unique smell to itself, it's quite solid for neutralizing extremely strong odors of all types from what I've seen, and done with it both. Some are anti-ONA, others love it. There's a few on RIU other than myself that can personally vouch for it working with limited/no carbon setup whatsoever. Mileage may vary, as with anything.. but it's not disappointed me yet. I'm not growing anything that smells like a diesel truck blew up in the grow room though (at this point)

Odor control is paramount, the difference between talking to an officer confidently when he's at your door talking about a neighborhood problems like car breaking and entering. Or wearing his special bracelets. Meter readers, cable guy, food deleivery guy, mailman, neighbors, family and friends all pose a threat to your freedom by being able to smell it at your door.

Yes..I agree ...money is always an issue. I gots to say this....a good friend of mine spent about 15 years growing in Amsterdam....with one of the big boys out there. He helped me set up my first grow room years ago....and his advice to me was," do it right Bear...do it right "...if you can control your micro climate of your space to as close to optimum conditions for what Cannabis requires.....its hard not to succeed....and he was right......I consistantly grow colas as thick as a regular sized water bottle and just as long if not longer....so my advice to anyone who wants to grow and have good results.....if at all possible make an investment once and reap the rewards from there on.......even if it means saving money for a while....it will pay off!!

Maybe someone can ask finshaggy to breed a strain that doesn't stink when it's growing.

Also my Kindle keeps wanting to autocorrect finshaggy to onslaught for some reason. :eyesmoke:
