First off sexy avitar!!! Second since you are a DIY I would look into building a carbon scrubber just in case the idea of adding other plants to the grow to cover smell doesn't work. Personaly there is no way some other plant would cover up the smell of my baby! NO WAY! But that is just the genetics of my plant, obviously it would depend on your plant. Good luck and your plants are looking good. I will cross my fingers in hopes of females for you!

Go to Wal-Mart buy 2 pencil cups one smaller than the other. Go to wea they sell shit for fish tanks and look for activated carbon. Then some dress socks or panty hoes lol. place the lil pencil cup in the sock stuff the excess sock in the cup fill it with carbon, place it in the bigger pencil cup pull sock so carbon falls in between both pencil cups then pull sock around the big pencil cup tie it off and that’s it.

if you dont get it let me know ill explain more or try to look for the pics.

ok, it should be fine for 2 or 3 plants and you would place wea ever your exhaust fan is so the air with smell gets pulled through the filter to clean it and out the grow space.

Well you can go get some ducting and a inline fan or a cheap 6inch duct fan from h-depot. Either run your exhaust out the window or up to your attic. People say the duct fans from h-depot suck which I agree but that’s what I’m using and its works well enough to suck out some air but not all. Then again my grow is 8x3x6, yours is a lot smaller so I’m sure the h-depot duct fan will work just fine. My exhaust heads up to the attic and my house never smells like bud, and I don’t even have a carbon filter. If I was you I would get some sort of exhaust going and if the smell gets bad enough you get that carbon filter if not then don’t. No reason fixing something that doesn’t need to be.


are those stars on your tummy?
