I'll be growing only2 plants at most does anyone think I'll need a scrubber to make it not smell outside of the tent during flowering? My tent is 4x2x4

Depends on the strain. Some reek, others not so much. I would say buy a scrubber. Cops and theives go by smell mostly. Be safe

Don't waste your fucking money. Air freshener will work if there is a noticeable smell.

I just pulled out my scrubber that sat unused for over 3 years at least. Growing diesel right now and this strain stinks bad. Thats the only time I have used the scrubber.

You will be dealing with odor. Just how? That's the question.

You are pulling negative pressure in process of venting the tent I assume. Your carbon filter, of oversized, will do a better job of filtering air being vented. If undersized, the blower pulls air through faster than the carbon can remove odor.

If that doesn't do it then your looking at a recirculating scrubber in the tent as well.

I'm new to growing so in sure it'll be smelling once I start flowering. I have a 4x2x4 tent so I think that's 32 cubic feet right? so I'll want a scrubber that will be a good size for my tent if I go with a to big of a fan will that be a bad thing too?
What size would u get if u were me fan and filter?

money wasted lol. Two plants in that tent with with those little cfl's will get small plants and won't smell much at all. You would have to be standing right over them to smell them. But hey it's your money.

Ya true true I'll see how bad it gets and go from there, if it gets bad I'll get a scrubber but if not I'll just get some Oder Neutralizers.
