[Rockafeller85]

any place that sells aquarium supplies has activated charcoal such as Petsmart, Petco, Walmart just to name a few. For Fans try Coolerguys.com -- Your Computer and Home Theater Cooling Source for Over 10 Years and look under ac volt fans.

Fan size depends on how many plants you have in flower. If you only have a couple, a small fan like that might work, but usually its better to get a little bigger just in case. I use a 5 gallon bucket with carbon in it and a 6" fan hooked to it

thnx for the help so so far.

kinda adding to the earlyer question but how big of a carbon scrubber do you need and how often do you need to change the filter?

Also what is the expected life span of the carbon? how often do i change it?

looked at the http://boards.cannabis.com/growroom-...on-filter.html and just wonder how big is needed. have a 3' x 6' space

i don't know how to edit posts so sorry for the double.

how well should the scrubber work? like what kind of a reduction in smell should there be?
