Do you have a carbon filter? Stealth and carbon filters go hand in hand. Using intake fans does not work well with carbon filters either, you need negative box pressure. I would look into this now before you flip to flower as it will be easier to hide the smell until you get it figured out.

Not in this small of a space and with pc fans they restrict the flow to much. So I use a ona breeze fan for older control it works very well in micro/mini grows

like your video fellow and great point about the safty

intake fans and oder ?

problem is fellow, the Exhaust Fans need to be at top of the room and intake fan at the bottom

pressure causes heat, a vacum will reduce heat and reduce the chance of any smell getting out the box once you have the filter
