Howdy all
I know there are a ton of threads on this topic but none that are specific to my questions/concerns...
I'm rounding out week 7 of flower and the ladies have really started to stink the last several days and I suspect it will only get worse between now and the end of drying.
I have an exhaust fan hooked up to a carbon filter as well as an additional fan and carbon filter in the middle of my lung room...all that, after 2 carbon filters, and it still smells. I've noticed that some days it's worse than other days...why? The smell is about 95% contained to the basement although I wish it was 100% contained within the tent. Of the remaining 5%, I would say that 4% is leaking throughout my house and 1% is getting to the outside...you'll get an occasional whiff of it before it disappears. I have a portable AC unit hooked up and when that thing cranks on, the outside smells pretty bad if you are in front of the AC vent. Does anyone have a hack around this so the AC won't allow the smell to leave the house?
Is it safe to assume that with good, stinky bud, starting around week 7 things really start to stink and it only gets worse before it gets bagged? Or will the stank lower at some point between now and then? Is it more common for the ladies to smell with lights on or off, or does it not matter? I ask this because I might have my lights turn on at a different time to help combat this. Other than a carbon filter in lung room and one hooked to the exhaust fan in the tent, I also have baking soda on plates throughout the lung room. Does anyone have any other hacks they can share?
I'm thinking in the next run I'll hook up an exhaust fan to my lung room (pushing air outside) and connect that to a carbon filter. I figured if the already filtered air is being expelled constantly, and through a carbon filter, then I should take care of the smell, right? While also dealing with most of my humidity issues...?
