Sealed grow air scrub
Dankbudz84started grow question 4 years ago
After adding a dehumidifier, evaporative cooler and c02 bag I decided to go ahead and do a sealed grow to better control the environment. Conditions look great. I’d like to know if I can loop my exhaust to recirculate the air to scrub it when things get stank? Video on the diary

A supply of fresh air is vital when your not running your c02. Plants put off oxygen and breathe c02. So in a sealed environment when c02 is not running and you recirculate the air it would be like putting a bag over your head. This time it would be oxygen building inside the tent instead of the co2 they need to breathe.,Cheers

I am adding C02, I have the ability to maintain a perfect vpd at all times, I also walk in the tent at least once every 2 days maybe they are getting their fresh air there. I don’t see how this would be bad, I have humidifier, dehumidifier and a/c.

No, it wont work.
Without fresh air exchange your plants will die.
Plants need both oxygen and carbon dioxide to survive.
You can not grow healthy plants in a system whereby there is no replenishment with new air.

Carbon filter effectiveness at harvestHey everyone, just wondering if carbon filters actually get rid of 100% of the smell from the harvest point while drying? I can’t smell anything outside the tent at the moment but my plants haven’t all bloomed fully and I need to be prepared, can’t have the neighbours smelling!Setup. Ventilation

Odour controlFirst indoor grow and is a stealth grow. I’m wondering if complete odour control is possible for one plant. One auto in the tent with a large carbon filter and appropriately size duct fan, walls are sucked in — I also have ona blocks to place around room during flower.Week 3

Mycelium or Fungus - Too much Part 2I am seeing a ton of mycelium on all of my autopots. Because I have a bottom feed system, it is hard to keep my top medium wet without getting mold. Is this going to effect my end result if I do not do anything about this? Should I leave it alone or put sand on it?

6" c' filter adapted to 4" Cloudline fan?Has anyone mated a 6" carbon filter to a 4" inline fan? AC Infinity is OUT of 4" filters, so considering getting a 6" and adapting down to 4" intake on AC Infinity Cloudline.
Seems intuitive, since reduced intake restriction would be preferable, with increased life as a benefit.Week 2
