    Help - What went wrong? Setup equipment or user error?

    I didn’t see any filters or venting bckush?? All I saw were those pretty, pretty ladies with those nice boobs, I mean buds. Ha ha. After my run-in with the cable dude, I don’t feel the attic is an option. I do have a 45-foot-tall chimney that I could vent from, but that would require three...

    Help - What went wrong? Setup equipment or user error?

    Yeah, I’m thinkin about going with a combo; 2 new “Brand Name” carbon filters & some ONA. Plus I’m debating on whether to use corex drain pipe or something similar to that for my runs, instead of the flexible duct. Corex should be air-tight for sure, lower noise & some flexibility in the pipe...

    Help - What went wrong? Setup equipment or user error?

    Was kinda looking and/or hoping for a quick fix, that would not involve another major expense or a major alteration on the homestead. Plan to put it on the market within the next two years, so cutting holes to run duct or pipe is not an option. Got one kid graduating college this year and the...

    Help - What went wrong? Setup equipment or user error?

    An ozone generator is an option, but shit, I don't want to die or kill my pets. Maybe I'll try a different brand name carbon filter first, although Amazon did rate the "Yescom" filter a four plus. Both filters are riveted together, so I might disassemble and fill with a different carbon. As...

    Help - What went wrong? Setup equipment or user error?

    Quick background; did my first grow (in 15yrs) a while back and had issues with venting my setup. Originally, I was setup in a room down in the basement and venting straight into the attic. That was until my wife had some work done on our satellite dish unbeknownst to me and the cable dude made...

    Help - Cable dude sniffed out my grow!

    Ok, quick rundown on my past setup.A 4’x3’x7’ with 4 dual cinching duct ports. I had a 6” duct connected directly to the hood for the lighting and the air was pulled directly through the hood and exited from the top duct port. I had a duct booster fan in the basement and another in the attic...

    Help - Cable dude sniffed out my grow!

    Guess I am always try to over think things and never thought of the obvious, leaks in the duct or old carbon in my fairly new scrubber filters. The basement has never been damp in the 16yrs I have lived there, so no damage to the scrubbers were caused by moisture. I just "ass"umed the two...

    Help - Cable dude sniffed out my grow!

    I'm looking for different ideas and/or techniques for the smell. Off the shelve products are not working, for me anyways. Have no desire to cover up the odor with air fresheners. (like puttin perfume on a skunk) Last night I thought about maybe using a large box about the same size as a furnace...

    Help - Cable dude sniffed out my grow!

    Tent was used. No special intake setup into the tent and I "used" one scrubber for the vent that vented the light and the other scrubber vented the tent itself. Fans & scrubbers were all located in the attic. No way the installer saw the setup, but he damn sure smelt it.

    Help - Cable dude sniffed out my grow!

    Unaware that my wife had changed cable carriers, BAM, an installer shows up bright and early this week at my door. After the install, when my wife was speaking to the installer; I heard him make a comment that our attic smelled “peculiar.” My wife, being a non-smoker and totally clueless...
