As the title says... I have used my carbon filter that came with my original grow tent kit for too long. It never did a good job in the small tent and it totally useless now. I want to know, what is the best. I've got a max budget of 300.00

Phat and Phresh make the best filters, only ones I will ever use. I have several and some have been running over 6 years and still going strong.

Phat and phresh are great options. Growers choice is also pretty good at 1/2 the price.

Changing the prefilter is important for keeping them working well. I just bought the replacement phat prefilter and put that on my new growers choice filter, as the phat prefilter is much better than what comes with the growers choice filter.

They are about 100$ for a 8x24.

I vote for phresh filters. They are not cheap but order control should be a priority.

I prefer Can brand filters, they were about the only ones out when I started doing this or and they still make great quality filters. I've never tried phat or phresh but compared to cheap Amazon ones or the active air ones Can brand is way better.

Can is ok, next time you reup, try a Phat or Phresh, they last way longer. Their antibypass tech is good too as many carbon filters dont use the bottom third of the filter as much as the top 2/3.
