Smell through filter exhaust

DuschkabinenGrowstarted grow question 1y ago

The smell inside is quite strong and is coming through the filtered exhaust. Is this normal, or does it mean I need to replace my filter soon?

if it didn't smell before, it's probably not due to an incorrect activated charcoal filter. have you checked the seals? i've read before that too much humidity affects the filter. but it could also simply be because the smell is too intense, so that the filter doesn't work properly. the very last possibility would of course be that the ability decreases due to age

Kann gut sein das der Filter durch ist und du ein neuen brauchst. Ich wechsel den Filter nach jedem dritten Grow, spätestens nach einem Jahr wird er gewechselt. Falls du auch in dem Raum rauchst wo das Zelt steht ist der Filter schneller dicht und du müsstest ihn öfters austauschen

If you’ve had this filter for quite sometime now, it’s probably in need of replacement I would say.

Please look at the leaves shown, orange and dried parts. I asked a similar question earlier but these look more damaged and I'm wondering if it's worsened due to my setup. Wind damage from fans? Water damage from humidifier? Light or heat damage? Managing VPD is tough. Thanks!
