What if you used Tide with febreze in it.
I would think the laundry detergent would be a bit more concentrated,
and would be stronger.

Very nice, i have something similar only im using a 12in honeywell fan, it fits the lid perfect. I use a concentrated odor fighter agent from home depot and SOIL MOIST, i dont know if this has already been mentioned, but it will make the mix last a lot longer.

So is everyone saying a bottle of last a month. Also how much if any water do you use? Thanks!

I use soilmoist crystals and straight fabreeze... no water. About a month.. maybe 3 weeks. mix the fabreeze in a bit at a time at the crystals will absorb it and you can add more.

Does this put much moisture or humidity in the room?

No, but i run 25 to 30 % all the time anyway. It will depend on your room i guess.

this is a good idea! Where do you all place the buckets? Outside the flower room correct?

I draw mine though the filter just for extra protection.

i think im going to vent my whole flower room to a bucket like this and do the same thing with the PC fan on top. +rep!

Dear friends:

Hello from Portugal!!!

I've seen this kind of odor control for a long time. The only problem is that instead of grass smell we have some other kind of smell that can be noticed from everyone, isn't it? Or am I wrong? That will make everyone pay atention to it too... or is it that "smooth" that will be llike if someone had been cleaning it?

Smooth as a baby's ass

I just thought of this variation for my own room and though i would share. I am doing a scrog and after the screen heighth i have about 30" for flowering so i can build a little dedicated odor control system up above the light. So here is my plan.....

1. Build a divider to put about 6 to 12" down from the top of the box where you can mount the light and also have a whole in the middle for a pc fan.

2. I don't want to take up room for more plants on the floor by putting a bucket in there so i will use 2 of the tiny fan ones from a convenience store to put on both side of the walls of the grow room.

3. Then i will build a small version of the bucket filled w/ febreeze idea (w/ or without the fan i can't make a decision on this one) to set ontop of the divider like a shelf. i will then just cut a pc fan into the back of the box at the top that will cool the box as well as make my room smell freshhhh.

4. Before closing the box i will put a pc fan in the whole of the divider so that the heat/air/tiny fan smell gets pulled through to the top area where the bucket is sitting to help w/ any other deordization and the exausht fan is releasing it.

5. Then if i have room i will have a vedge room underneath teh flowering area so that i can have a perpetual grow and will have an intake pc fan at the bottom drawing in cool air and have small holes in the divider above the vedge box so the smell/cool-ish air leaks into the flowering area and is deodorized.

I feel like this is going to work pretty well as far as deordorizing goes and the price shouldn't be too bad, might as well do it right so you don't get caught. Once i figure out how to insert a picture i will put up a diagram of what i am talking about.

Let me know what you think

does this really 'kill' the odor? or just mix wit it?.. i don't see how this stuff is going to neutralize the odor...

It works trust me.

hmm... i use ona gel... i hate the fuck'n smell! fresh linen my ass!! so now i'm wondering... would the febreeze fuck'n smell too much also?.. how much to you think you spent on this contraption when all was said and done? ona isn't cheap! i'm thinking febreeze would be cheaper.
but Fk! .. i hate the smell of the febreeze when we spray it in the kitchen for the trash can... uhhh!!!

just get a carbon filter and do it the easy way, the cleaner way, who wants chemicals floating around.
