I need some input. I have a small grow box that i would like to use as a pollination room but i dont know what type of screen or filter to use on the air out take as to minimize the risk of it getting into my flower room.

I am getting ready to set up a small area for this same purpose. My plan is to vent to the outside.

I imagine a heppa filter would be best for stopping pollen from getting out if you are venting into your room.

I have a 55 gal aquarium that I stand on one end, covering the bottom (used to be one side) with parchment paper. I put my male in it (covering the open side with plastic) when it starts popping pollen. I remove and replace the parchment paper daily. Of course I do this on the patio, and change clothes & bathe before entering the flowering room. Its amazing how much pollen one can collect like that. Doesn't keep very long, even in the freezer. A few months at best.

A HEPA filter will filter out pollen as will a 24v electrostatic filter.

I am positive my neighbors are not growing. I live between old people :lol: older than me anyways. A few houses down is a county sheriff and I am kinda thinking him neither :lol:

My "outside" is actually into the storage area above my garage which is vented to the outside.


Hmmmmm... Maybe the old lady to the right IS growing. Could explain my last bean run :dunce: :weed:


I still vote for a Hepa filter.
