As long as yiu have negative pressure and your filter is of good quality youre good. The smell will only go where you want it to with negative pressure. When my scrubber was old i simply exhausted into a bucket i filled with ona. Shit will go faster than hotcakes due to the heat so you have to refill. But a little ona and polymer goes a long way. The small bucket will last you 60 days filled proportionately. Now i always do it the last 5-6 wks of flowering just cause.
 
Thanks guys My buddy has me nervous.The filter has about 6 months on it.The room does have a window ac which i heard leaks smell as well.LOL so i guess i will still find out one way or another.
 
I have a bunch of wood i could burn.IM out in the stick and i have a nice fire pit close to the outbuilding.I have considered stockpiling the wood for the last couple weeks.And constantly burning wood lol.IM sure it wood kill the smell

You could grow some aromatic herbs outside. You have some Jasmine strains that smell really strong ( at least in spring summer), and many others.

Just an idea.......
 
THanks for all the suggestions.I hope im overthinking things.Just dropped off some baby items after seeing blue balloons on the front porch.THey are about to have a baby boy.Would have done it anyway but might buy me some goodwill

Before flowering I would have some extra activated carbon ready to replace on your filter just to make sure if you feel like it may be past it's prime that you can swap it out and rest easier.

Should be fine, but a 8" w/ paired scrubber would be ideal. Overkill never hurts.

Vaportek Optimum 4000 is your friend for secondary odor control. Put in place in the area outside of your immediate grow room.
 
Thanks for all the input.Things are starting to stink in the outbuilding.I cannot smell it outside of the building.My sense of smell may be a little numb though.Someone who doesnt smoke prob smell it before i would.Anywho fuck it
