Do you think it will work?

I want to try and build a homemade carbon filter using high cfm computer fans. I've seen them online that push over 200cfms and I wondering if that would be enough for a smaller filter. I'm figuring that instead of activated carbon I could use replacement carbon filters that are sheet like these Replacement Filters The filter would be only for one plant in flower, with the room at 1'6"x1'8"x3' and I'd be ok with changing it for each grow as I'm sure they don't 'last as long as activated carbon.

You guys think it will work?

A filter is not required, just for smell, so if it doesn’t work not a big deal. I’ve never used a filter and have one sitting in my garage, they don’t do anything for the grow, just for your piece of mind. Proper air movement is needed though, if you only have a couple pc fans you might want to get something better, although that is such a small room they will work fine, your not growing much in there anyhow.

Well carbon filter usually blocks air flow.and those fans you are talking will cost you more than a proper fan.but sure as long as all the air is going out the filter it should remove smells

Why even bother growing a 20g single plant tho?
I did 90g no problem

Edit just saw your size it will be a struggle ziny space is daily maintnance
