My grow space is very small and compact, and currently has 3 plants growing hydroponically (quite nicely, I might add). But it's really starting to stink my place up, so I keep lighting incense to block the smell. But I'd much rather just stick the incense into my grow box. Would this harm the plants?
Yes it will hurt them, I don't want a stick of incense in my food either. Don't do it.:)
Protect children from cancer causing incense smoke
not good for people, probably clog the stomata (breathing holes) of the plant
I wouldn't recommend it
I use some store brand odor neutralizers and scents that spray ever so often
and it still smells but better than nothing .__.
just get a alpine air purifier cost about 400.00 but it works great look at ebay 200 sq ft to 3000 sq foot coverage
spend $100-125 and get a carbon air scrubber.....look on ebay ...TO HELP YOU FIGURE WHAT SIZE FILTER AND FAN YOU NEED, HERE IS A SIMPLE WAY TO FIGURE IT OUT.
WIDTH X LENGTH X HEIGHT = CUBIC FEET
(TO BE EFFECTIVE-THE AIR IN THE ROOM SHOULD BE EXCHANGED AT LEAST ONCE EVERY 5 MINUTE)
CUBIC FEET / 5 MINUTES = CFM NEEDED
EXAMPLE:
8 X 8 X 8 = 512 CU FT
512 / 5 = 102 CFM NEEDED
Quote:
6" X 14" ACTIVATED CARBON, CHARCOAL AIR FILTER, HYDROPONIC ODOR SCRUBBER WITH 130 CFM ATTACHED FAN..... THE FILTER IS FILLED WITH 5 LBS. OF PREMIUM COAL BASED ACTIVATED CARBON.
THIS IS A STAND ALONE UNIT. SIMPLY SET IT IN A ROOM, OR SUSPEND IT FROM THE CEILING. PLUG IT IN AND THE ODORS WILL DISAPPEAR
SPECS
130 CFM 5'' SQUARE FAN (dBA 48)
5'' FAN GRILL
6' ELECTRICAL CORD
6'' OUTER CORE
14'' FILTERING AREA
18'' LENGTH OVERALL
5 LBS. OF ACTIVATED CARBON
264 SQUARE INCHES OF FILTER SURFACE AREA
THIS FILTER WILL DO AN AVERAGE 8 X 8 X 8 ROOM EXCHANGING THE AIR ONCE EVERY 3 MINUTES OR AN AVERAGE 9 X 9 X 8 ROOM WILL EXCHANGE THE AIR ONCE EVERY 5 MINUTES

FOOTHILL FILTERS
I think that might be a little bit of a steep investment for only growing 3 plants in what the orignal post called a small and compact space lolQuote:
