    Ok I wanna know if this is going to be good enough to get rid of the smell of 4-6 plants. I'm going to grow in a closet in a restroom that has a standard vent in it. Its an apartment... so any thoughts? Will it work? Is it a bad idea?

    here's the difference i noticed, before i got a filter&fan you could be standing outside the barn about to walk in and you could smell it, after i went and got my setup you can be in the room and not smell the plants unless you touch them.
    if your gonna spend some cash on any one thing get a carbon filter and fan it's worth the money if you ask me!

    Without some sorf of odor control (i.e. a carbon filter or covering agent) you will surely smell up the entire apartment. IMO a good filter is worth it's weight in bud.

    baking soda nor charcoal will be effective. Charcoal can't be substituted for activated carbon.

    IMO a fan and carbon filter would be a lot cheaper than a trip downtown with leo. after the wrong person smells your garden.

    Be safe and reap the rewards!!!!!!!!
