Ya DIY's definitely cut down on cost...but having to build one every time you need to replace it is a PITA...of course you could build it so you just empty the used carbon and re-fill with good carbon. lol For a room that size, which is 96 cubic feet, a 440CFM fan would recirc the entire rooms...

Also, I'd rep you if could cause your setup is pretty awesome and those outdoors...wonderful. But since I'm new here I cant rep anyone yet. :wall: I noticed in your Sig that you have some NGG glass for sale...do you have a progression thread? Edit: I just scanned through the glass thread in...

GOD DAMN THOSE OUTDOORS ARE MONSTERS! :clap: haha It's always nice to have friends in strategic places.:blsmoke: So basically 3 filters a year? that seems like it could add up pretty quick...good thing you got the hook-up. lol Do you filter the Veg room?

Agreed!! :mrgreen:

How long is awhile? I know that activated carbon works by binding odor molecules to the surface of the carbon, but once all the surface area has been used it stops working and releases odor like there isn't even a filter. What size do you use and what is the cost of it? and why change the fan...

Thanks for the vid...nice setup:hump:...are you perpetual? How much is each one of those filters? and how long is two flower cycles? the usual ~2 months or?

I've read a few threads here about using just a 1 part nute from seed to finish, although I think they used a different brand...floralicious maybe? I cant remember. lol But I don't remember seeing a negative post about it. Personally I'm a fan of the Dyna-Gro line because I run a Re-circulating...

How often do you guys replace your carbon filter? What size filter do you use (for your grow space)?

Haha that doesn't sound like much of a downside! I've heard of the hempy-buckets...but what is KISS style?

I was wondering if you were doing a vertical scrog when I noticed the netting in the back. That is definitely the way to go if you are using one bulb. :cool: I agree, vertical is dope...i haven't ever tried it myself but it looks and sounds promising, so maybe sometime soon. :mrgreen:

Congrats on the upgrade! :hump: So about 5 inches for a 600w and 8 inches for a 1000w, with a good ventilation system from the sound of it. Do you think if you could get the lights closer to the plant without burning or heat stress, it would improve your harvest?

Ya if you are gonna go vertical then it basically eliminates most of the heat from the bulb...but you would need a bigger wattage to get more penetration through the canopy or you would need more than 1 bulb to get both sides of the plants (a setup like bulb>plants<bulb or...

Thanks for explaining it bozo. :clap: Makes more sense now. I'd rep you if i could but i'm new here so i don't have that feature yet. :wall:

So ona gel is just used as a supplement to another odor control method (ie. carbon filter)? How does it work?

I agree with drolove, always air-cool Even if you don't "need" to reduce heat, less heat from a bulb means you can place it closer to the plants and that means more intense light, more canopy penetration, less lumen loss, and in turn bigger, denser, more potent harvests.

Do you guys think ona gel works better than a carbon filter? how long does an "ona bucket" last?

The cheapest I've seen is right around ~$100 but I don't think it would be effective for more than a small closet.

Is it not cheap because you have to replace it often or just the initial cost or both?

Hey there RIU! So what is the average spacing you guys give your plants from your air-cooled HID on a 400W, 600W, and/or 1000W? Also, how well does the glass insert in air-cooled hoods keep heat from the plants? Thanks, GorrillaPanic SNP

Hey RIU, so this is my first post here :hump:and I have a few odor control questions for you guys. What is the best method, in your opinion, to control odor? How long does your favored method typically last before it needs replacement? Thanks, GorrillaPanic SNP
