hello all, just got a couple of questions if you would be so kind to offer any help. i'm thinkin about 4 plants a 400w mh/hps light system in a 4 x 4 x 5 ft grow box. how bad will it smell? should i get some sort of air filter? (i'm thinking about this: Air Purifier, Ionic Air Purifiers / Air Ionizers) also, what kind of air circulation will i need? will it get really hot in there? how do i stop it from killing my babies??
thanks so much for your help

always want ventilation, or at least air movement. the vents will help keep temps low, panhead has a homemade air filter, costs $3 to make, works great, I'm using one right now.

I have 4 plants and I'll tell you .. when I walk into the house where they are .. You smell them right away . Sometimes more than others , but if your growing where you live and there are other people around .. Go the extra yard to cover the smell.. People just love to snitch and ruin someones hobby

do they smell a lot during the veg phase? or is it mostly during flowering? i dont think vents are an option, so what else can i do besides the ionic purifier for odor control? I'm going to get a couple of fans in there too to keep the air moving but i was jsut wondering if that air purifier would be enough? or maybe i should get a bigger one?

An Air purifier and sum sort of Freshner like Glade plugins or a simple aerosal spray should do he trick for a few plants. G.L.
