Filters - In or Out?

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by dbBrooklyn, Aug 11, 2009.

  1. Just a quick question,
    Should the filter be inside or outside the grow room?
    Another way to ask this is.....
    Is it better to suck or blow the odor through the filter?


    (please refrain form the cheap jokes..........unless they are good)

    :rolleyes:
     
  2. From what I hear, sucking is better. Less odor, less noise. But i'm a noob m8.
     
  3. well, from our last grow, we had 7 plants and we had the carbon filter in a upstairs bedroom closet(our exhaust runs out of the basement through the rafters in a upstairs closet out the roof).

    Needless to say, you could smell bud 7 houses down.. 24/7 lol. Not good when there is a sheriff 2 doors down.. :\ any way..


    if the Filter is out side the room, make sure there isnt alot of room between the room and the filter, because small creases(bends/fittings/etc.) will leak when there is pressure between the exhaust fan and the filter.

    So Im going to say from experience, Id say in the room.

    But it's purely choise :)


    Not sure if that helps.. but Good luck man :)


    Peace.
    Will.
