I Use ONA block's. A trick i use is to put an ONA block in the ducting of the out take. This works really really well.

the problem i have is a carbon filter needs a inline fan and thats too noisy for my stealth grow so not sure away around it

No inline fan? I hope you have decent ventilation, otherwise the plants are gonna die anyway. More importantly, what kind of lighting setup do you have? More light = fatter buds = more smell
I have a lot of experience with ONA. If you are doing a small CFL grow in a case or something relatively self-contained, it is probably good enough for your needs. if you have more than a 250W HID, it's not going to be enough. Hope that helps.
Also, their BEST product (some are definitely more effective than others) is the ONA PRO gel. You will probably need at least two quarts. It's pricey, but cheaper than any inline fan/filter combo, and cheaper than getting busted.
I put a little bit at a time in a ziplock, pokes some holes in it, and place it near a fan. It really does work wonders.
Otherwise, and this is my most recent smell trick, is get one of those window fans that can be put on "exhaust only" mode - it will suck all the smell out of the room. Just make sure it's not blowing into your neighbors' window, or put some ONA in front of it

unless you could get caught the instant anybody catches the tiniest whiff of weed smell, it sounds like ONA will do the trick. It does evaporate fairly quickly so I'd recommend putting little bits out in a bag every day or two instead of just opening the jar like they recommend. It will last longer

Hey bro, figure I'll pit in my 2 cents...
I use a DIY carbon filter made from the 10$ green and black filters you buy at wallmart, all together I have about 6 filters and 2 ona blocks, and I can still smell DANK buds from my exhause, thinking imma need to get a phresh filter but my point is I don't think ONA will cove the smell by itself, not even 1, 1ft tall plant....hope this helps will ur purchaces

DEFINITELY. See the post above mine? I just don't think the blocks cover enough area. I really think a couple of quarts of pro gel should do the trick
howver, the only SURE way is to vent your whole room outside with a cheap window fan, and the ona is good for scrubbing that air first too.

I thinks it depends how big your growing.
if your gonna be opening a door to a room in a house where theres loads of stinking bud the smell will flow outa the room
so the ona block will work well in the space outside the room, and it will work
and could possibly work for a very tiny grow without and carbon filter I thinks

Cheers for the help im thinking ona gel and a filter on a few mins every hr should help

just a thought
if growing in a pc case you could prolly make a home made cabon filter around your outake fan

There are plenty of small carbon filters you can make that will work with a small fan/pc fan.
There should be a link to a thread I made that has loads of links to diy filters.
Most cost less than $10 and if you used one in conjunction with some ona gel you'll have practically no smell.
