I don't often mess around, but when I do it is with football sized buds that I forgot to take pictures of.

That would be like forgetting to breath.
Douche,
Why have you spent the money on CO2, quantum ballasts, an auto fire extinguisher, pre paid utilities, etc, but not spent the money on solid odor control?
I understand the lack of employment, but after lighting, odor control and ventilation are most impt.
Remember no tell and no smell.

Because I am a Douche!
Real reason: I had everything set to be bought on certin days. I Had set to order the scrubber and the nutes last week. It was 2 weeks ago I lost my job and all my funds have now moved to pay bills. If I had not lost my job I would not be getting bottom of the line nutes and a homemade scrubber.
I hope this answers your question, thanks for stopping by.

Man, I am returning a few spare things I bought via mail and until then I have zero bucks. When they are returned I will have enough credit with them to get my nutes.
I have another question for you. Will any ph+/- work to level off my ph? or do I need to get a PH +/- specificity for GH?

Sorry to hear about the job--but odor control is a must.
If you go the DIY route, make sure it's solid and pulling through at least 1" of tightly packed activated carbon. If you're growing stinky strains, make it 2"
Hey DB, manufacturers use a vibration pad to fill the scrubber completely. You can get a similar effect by tapping the table top with a hammer. Carbon will settle and minimize loose fill.

Man, using a hammer is to noobish for me. I have an uncle with Parkinson disease who can handle this part for me.

I totally understand that it is odor control is a must. I am doing what I can as fast as I can and as efficient as I can be. I am currently using about 3 inches and it is working well for the moment. Once I get nutes I will redo the scrubber.
You don't necessarily need GH specific. Advanced Nutrients is more concentrated but costs a little more. Prolly still cheaper to use.
I read here that pH adjust for fish tanks is cool. I'd steer clear of swimming pool pH adjust. Can't say why, just never used it.

Headline should read "Another noob move by Douche`"
Don't have to worry about Ph if no nutes in the water.
You can get sulfuric acid from the autoparts store (battery acid) which is cheap pH down.
Amazon sells potassium hydroxide (KOH) flakes for soap making which is pH up.
Or do like Disco says and get the AN stuff. AN's pH down is phosphoric acid and pH up is KOH. I've had my quarts for years and they are still 80% full.
These guys sell GH 3 part CHEAP. Like $8-10/gallon cheap.
Phat or Fresh make some decent cheap filters and CAP and S&P make good cheap inline fans.
I'm all about saving a buck, but odor control is a must, especially with a 6 site setup.
