I love mine and supposedly they are great for plants but I wouldn't just use it alone. Also the smell kind of gets old but it is nice sometimes.

I'm using one now. They work. You need to match the power of the generator to the room -- too much ozone = burned plants. If you're venting to an attic, and the generator is in there, you should be good as long as the attic size and generator match up (the ozone has to actually make contact with the source of odor so, if the room is too big, some of the odorous particles get away...). It helps to have another fan stirring the place up, too.

If I had it to do over, I'd just spend a little more to get a decent scrubber set up. Especially if it's about stealth -- I mean.. how smart would you have to be to put that together? (ie... smell of ozone = something weird is going on here).

Wow I had no clue It could burn em. I use a box fan to circulate, a small scrubber and the generator. Im not taking any chances in my condo. I would say get one if a scrubber doesn't cover it but scrubbers only work well if the room is sealed : /

Oh, you bet.. they lay down a spray of copper colored dots that look like nute burn, except the leaves are nice and straight (no curls, which almost always precedes nute spotting). Something to stay aware of if you're using one of these.

You bet.. nice to have more than one method. I have my room sealed, and the generator sits right outside that door and blasts everything that leaks thru - so that's my two step method.

I just wanted to add something I have been using for Smell Control....

Fresh 2 Ti Odor Neutralizers

I bought 3 of these bulbs and put 2 in front of my fan , I was amazed !!! :lol:

found them at 1000bulbs.com

This is a great resource for any kind of bulbage .....

My Hydro store sells these too but were more expensive ....

Really simple and Quiet ...

i dont like the idea of putting the o zone generator in the grow..it will kill the smell on the plants completely . ive heard storys of it affecting the potency also.
i use it outside the grow area so no smell escapes..and use ONA jell inside the grow .it wont completely kill the taste and smell of your plants.and keeps the smell beat down well..
i have two carbon scrubbers but dont even use them.

Yup, I've come to the same conclusion. Just too dicey to have the unit in with the plants. You can't really map out all the airflow in your room and if your plants are in a "quiet zone" airflow wise, it will settle there and burn your leaves, at least.

But, they're great just outside, as an adjunct.
 
i dont have a ozone gen,but ive been looking into them,they come in two types a cheaper,corona discharge type,that give off nitric acid,which i assume is the burning you speak off,or the more expensive UV type,which wont burn your plants i presume
