Here is a link to my grow set up
https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/215491-new-stealth-cabnit.html


Morning all.. Alright so my Appt is three stories. Its more of a townhouse then an appt. Regardless, I have a grow box in my basement which is A white pantry cabnit i bought at walmart there are some pics of mine in another thread. Anyways I do have a carbon filter and a small 4inch fan blowing through it for exhaust with good seal. I have no intake holes cut because the doors on the cabnit don't create a perfect seal. There is like 1/4 - 1/2 all around the doors. Now in theory i was thinking this would create a pressure system and suck air in through those gaps and out the filter. But my basement REAKS of weed lol.. My plants are not even into flower yet, still veg. But what could i do? Do i need to actually cut a intake hole and put a fan there? or build a new filter? What kinda ideas u guys got for me?

The link i posted has all the pictures. The cabnit is like 4 1/2 feet high. 3 feet wide. 1 1/2 feet deep. Carbon filter is the walmart made one from this site with carbon and pencil holders. And the fan is one of those 4 inch fans from walmart. Not sure the cfm man. I got 8 6500K cfls going on 2 plants. 1 plant is about 8 inchs tall with lots of nodes and other is just a seedling.

i think u need to seal the door and get a better fan. I don't think that 7$ walmart fan has a high enough cfm rating to blow through carbon, effectively.

okay, so i should figure a way to seal off the doors when it is closed then? And I bought another one of the fans . And a tube device. Im going to attach one fan blowing into the tube and one fan sucking out. With carbon inbetween. Not quite sure how to work it yet but i think that will help. What do you guys think? Also. If i seal off the doors i have no intake then, so should i cut a small hole for intake and put a fan blowing into the cabnit. Or will the two fans blowing out create enough suction?

its activated carbon. I bought a bunch of the stuff in the store and made a filter with the carbon in it.
