no charcoal brickettes (unless your planning on lots of crushing, still then I don't think that its as good), and no kitty litter (unless you want your weed smelling like it), spend the extra bux & get the right supplies, and you'll be smell-free.....:wtf: -- look at petco or similiar for large boxes of fish-tank charcoal, or call a larger-aquarium store that sells salt water supplies and get a 50lb bag. -- :rasta:

I purchased one from Ebay and it was a bit more than I was hoping for. Its loud and not bedroom closet friendly. My first plants are almost done if I don't find a better method for relieving the smell it may be my last.

when you say fire place do you mean a wood burning stove? I believe you can use the coals in this case but you have to get a lot of them in a small size, it's all about convience i feel. The market filters work well and the filters sometimes come with a fan attached. Both ways to get a filter will work

Peace,

You need the 'good' stuff. It comes from mines in Austrailia. I'm using a 8x20 mountain aire filter. Been running for over 4 years and never a smell in attic.

no kitty litter (unless you want your weed smelling like it)

Thats not true at all, the weed isn't going to smell like kitty litter unless you vent back into your growing space which isn't very smart anyways.
