What's up everyone.

I am nowhere near having any smell issues with my plant, but it's still small.

Do you think that 1 plant will smell up a whole room, or perhaps spread to other apartments above or below mine?


If so, can anyone recomend a cheap air cleaning solution. I am on a tight budget ya know.

i have a small fan that has a replaceable filter in it, i opened up the filter so it is just the frame and a wire mesh, im going to put j-cloth or something similar across the mesh and pour activated carbon from a fish store across it, cover again and repeat making an activated carbon filter, then buy some chicken wire or something to put on top and fasten it together and you have a diy carbon filter

It works wonders, also get a small fan to blow thru it. You need to be extra safe being in an apt. building, that smell could raise someone's curiousity. How do they collect rent ? How often does maintenance just walk in ? You are in a high risk situation already especially since who knows how many people have a key to your place and unlimited access. I would not recommend growing in an apt. building...........

Nice!. Yeah, I don't think it will be a problem. Neighbors upstairs sell the shit. Neighbors upstairs to the left, smoke me out.

And, the people to the right of me buy from me more often than not haha?

But yeah it's definitely higher risk. So any help with smells are awesome just in case.

That all sounds cool till someone gets busted and then they all start pointing fingers, hopefully that doesn't happen to you I've just seen it happen before.

I've built one of those walmart carbon filters and it goes together well and works even better. Like was mentioned get a PC fan or something to blow thru it, you should have enough carbon and pantyhose left over to build two if you need to, just have to buy 2 more pencil cups.
