Getting rid of smell in closet

Anyone have ideas on how to get as close to removing smell as possible inside a closet? 2 small plants inside a 32”x21”x36” box with open face and open top, inside a 2’x6’ closet ...can I get some sort of self standing fan/filter since ducting would probably be pointless? Ona gel? Please help!!

How are you going to exchange the air in there? You need a way for air to get in, and a carbon filter/fan combo to scrub the smell and exhaust somewhere. Even one plant in flower can stink up an entire home pretty quickly
If you are trying to hide the grow from housemates, ona gel isnt the answer

I think you need to rethink your grow. I've seen closet grows but the whole time I thought why doesn't he just buy a tent? It's cheap and the holes for air exchange are already there. What do you think?

So the closet is inside my bedroom, which always has a slight odor from dabs/bud. So I’m trying to get the odor as little as possible, not completely gone. I leave the doors open a crack and have a small clip fan circulating air inside the box, seems to be enough air flow. I have nothing to setup ducting to as the top and face of the box are open, so I’m wondering if there’s any way to just scrub the general area inside the closet with some form of standalone carbon filter/fan? Without ducting. And maybe throw a container of ona somewhere far away from the closet in my bedroom? Can also leave windows open throughout the day. Also have an in room ac unit that exhausts air out of the window, I can probably use that during the winter on fan mode to help with at least some ventilation.

Extremely limited vertically, like 36” it was easier to build a box a custom size because I’m a carpenter ...also wanted to max out my horizontal dimensions which were like 30”, don’t think I would’ve found a tent that could really take advantage of the room I do have.
 
I have closet shelving right above the box, was thinking maybe put the fan/filter combo right over top? If that’s even doable ...when I was doing my research I skipped the fan/filter part because I knew I wasn’t using a tent and underestimated the smell plants can put off.

So are you thinking yet about a pruning method? You don't have much height to work with.
Perhaps think about mainlining. You'll end up with a tight plant with lots of beautiful nuggies.

after reading that I didn’t truly mainline, I just trained it to this shape but in regards to the 2 main nodes, I didn’t do that
 
Looks like you have it figured out. Except the odor. I read the specs on the above mentioned stand-alone scrubber. I was wondering how much noise it made. But if it scrubs 148 cu. ft. per minute, in a closet like yours you might not smell anything. The air in that closet will exchange something like every 20 seconds, lol. But I'm worried that when the plants flower even a scrubber like that won't help but a little. What do you think?

We’ll find out because I ordered the foothill filter lol
