so i'm bout to restart my grow, i tried awhile ago and i just had a shit set up so i gave up on it but now i'm tryin out a single plant inside an old dresser in the backspace of a closet. how much stench would a single plant give off? is there a way to make a mini charcoal filter for it? i'm pretty sure i could rig up a ventilation tube through the walls going outside if needed. also heatwise, i'm not gonna go startin out with a HPS cuz i'm just learnin, i've already got acouple flouro tubes and acouple CFLs. i was thinkin about usin the CFLs till it got about a foot high, then puttin the flouros in the corners standing up in the dresser, with a CFL overhead. would that be a good setup?

You might what to hit google with DIY carbon filter. I would bet after you read a few of the walkthroughs you could easily develop your own to anysize and fit anywhere. I know this is a project of mine in the upcoming months.

I made a carbon filter that worked good for a bedroom once. I bought twenty lbs of activated charcoal at home depot and a bathroom fan (ask for a fart fan, they will know what it is). I used a laundry tub with a lid and cut a suction hole in the side(which i stuck a 4-5 inch wide x a foot long pvc tube in) i filled the tube with charcoal and all around it as well...i cut a hole in the tub away from the tube and mounted the fan there. Just try to make the airflow back and forth before it hits the fan. I used pieces of cardboard for this. it cost me 50 bucks at the most and worked well

i used lots of duct tape.
