does ozone affect the taste and smell of end product ?

I'm nearing the end of my 4th grow. every grow I used an enaly ozone gen I got on ebay. I have a stealth grow in a cab in my closet and have no way to vent air outside. I use the ozone gen in the same room as the plants, but the plants do just fine. the gen has 9 settings so it runs 30 sec and off for 4.5 min. on setting 1 and continues up till it runs full time on setting 9. the plants are big, dense, and covered in trichs. they smell great when I chop them down, but after I dry them they smell like hay or a heave musty smell. I don't know if it was the way I dried them, too fast, or the ozone gen.
I really don't have a choice. If I use a carbon scrubber it would have to be outside of the cab and then I loose the stealth. the weed is some of the best I ever smoked, but it smells like hay or musty. any advice would be greatly appreciated. I think I dried the bud too fast before. after I cut them I would trim all the leaf material off and cut the buds from the main stem and laid them out on a screen. they would dry in about a week and then I put them in jars and burped them everyday for 2 weeks. like I said they would smell great when I chopped them, but once they dried in about a week they smelled bad. did anyone else have similar problems using ozone?
heres some pics at 6 weeks SCROG grow under a procyon 100 LED light.

I think your problem is unrelated to the ozone.
You need to fully dry, and then CURE your plants to really get the best flavor/smell out of them. Give them about a 2-4 week cure after tehy are fully dry, and then see how they smell. IT should make a world of difference!

I meant to say SOG not SCROG in my last post
