Ozone at harvest

Just wondering if anyone here has any experience using an ozone generator in the drying room. I have to dry my harvest at another location this time and we placed an ozone generator in the room to keep the smell controlled from spreading all over the house. I am worried it will make the finished weed not as stinky. Is there any reality to this or am I worrying for nothing. Thanks in advance!

PS: My keyboard is not allowing me to use a question mark. This comes up for some reason É. Must be the language setting - oh well.....

ozone around your harvest is a great way to bleach the taste out of the weed

I removed the ozone generator from the room because I go through so much hastle to leach the plants well and grow quality herb that tastes good and is safe that I don't want to screw things up now even if it is a small chance. I moved the buds back to there regular drying location and there is a carbon scrubber there - so all is well. Thanks for the replies - it made me think a little more about what I was doing.

Yeah, I have used only carbon filters and they delete the smell, as mentioned ozones will effect the overall fruit product! ..

I never really liked ozone emitters first because I find a carbon scrubber works way better, and second because they say breathing in ozone for a long period of time can harm you. I use to use them before I knew about carbon scrubbers and they worked some-what. Back then I was always using apartments to grow so I would hang one outside the grow room and one in the hall close to the front door. It worked well at keeping the smell out of the hall, but that is pretty much it.

Now with using a carbon scrubber along with a 5 - 1000 watt grow in the basement I could have a whole family of people over for a visit and no one would know a thing. I only wish I knew about carbon scrubbers much sooner.
