Does it exist yet - Electronic Cannabis Stink Meter ?

[cryptolab]

Hi there,

The Introduction:
One of the problems with an indoor, at home, grow.
Is that you fail to notice, or underestimate, the way cannabis stinks.

The smells that are ever present, somehow become invisible.
I guess it's a bit like the guy that has body odour ... on the train/bus/tram/plane etc.
He either under-estimates the problem, or he has no idea there is a problem.

But for people walking in the vicinity, of the guy with body odour, or in the vicinity
of the (supposedly) secret cannabis grow, the odour is _very_ apparent.

For people with body odour, the worst problem is having a reputation as being the
guy that smells. And consequently being dismissed and rejected socially.

For people running a cannabis grow operation. This can result in time spent
in prison, the loss of employment, or loss of a career, the confiscation of assets,
enormous legal bills, consequential marital and family problems... etc etc.

My Question is:
Is there such a thing, as an electronic cannabis stink meter ?
Or
Is there something similar, like a detector of aromatic compounds ?

Does anyone know of such a thing ?
Or ....do you have some bright ideas for improvising such a device ?
If so, please reply to this thread.
Your contribution will be warmly welcomed and gratefully received

Thank you ... have a nice day

It has always been around, between your eyes there is a nose, that should work great!

Never heard of anything to be made like that yet, good quality filters will always clear odours and filter to clean air.

HTH beat me to the snarky reply.

There is research into smelling devices, but it's still in its infancy.

The nose does get saturated (if that's the word--receptors all locked up with terpene molecules?) after a while.

When I had a plant growing in the corner of the living room, I discovered that getting out of the house for an hour would reset my personal electronic stink meter. I'd walk through the door after a trip to the grocery store and it would be WHAT'S THAT SMELL!?

hi Scientific,

yes... that's exactly the problem.
We become "nose-blind" so easily.
