I think I will pull "the purps" before Sunday. Maybe Thursday. It looks a little faster than the others.

Shit the ozone generator broke and neighbor complained it smells like skunk! Off to get a new ozone generator. I don't notice the smell since I'm used to it. But can't have neighbors complaining.

your carbon scrubber isn't enough?

That surprised me too. Ordered new ozone generator and got to work figuring out why it wasn't working. Turns out I never noticed there was a 3/4" thick gap on inside of door at the top and at the bottom of the filter tray, so all the air could go AROUND the filter. Filled the gap with closed cell foam. Now it is filtering (checked vaccum at all intake holes with lighter) and smell is mostly gone

Still good to have ozone generator though - redundant smell reduction is good. Lazy though,
Should have seen the problem. Hard to make a 6 foot wide cabinet with no warp in the 3/4" plywood doors.

It is a smell of success
Yah lucky for me I am legit so I don't worry too much about the smell other than for security. But yah I now actually am running 3 6 inch scrubbers and at certain light schedules i can smell it a tiny bit. It was much worse but I washed one of my carbon scrubbers and it seemed to refresh it some. When I am drying a harvest it is like near impossible to control.. lol
I think Ozone will be next for me... please post what you think of the results....

Ozone works great, been using it for years.
For harvest some tips:
I staple plastic drop cloth to the ceiling making a 8x8' "room" with plastic from
ceiling to floor. Put your wash buckets in there and wash and hang all inside there, and place ozone generator just outside the plastic sheet room. That will greatly reduce it. To cover any remaining smell I like to start ribs or a roast or anything slow cooking and stinky a little before the harvest starts. Stink up the whole house like ribs, double win, smell cover and ribs mmmmm

Funny I am in a basement and I just do alot of laundry..lol.. but I dry in my flower room hidden sorta in the dark under my drain tables... So far it has worked great..60-70% humidity for about a week... the last day i dry in 40-50 humidity in veg room... But I have some swelling ladies and flower just reeks...one filter continuous scrubbing in there. Not 100% air sealed I guess ..it vents heat into veg. Veg has one scrubber and one to filter out... still need just a touch better.. been debating ozone..
What are your thoughts on ozone and air quality? too much can be an issue?
just curious...

I just adjust the ozone so there isn't extra. If it is too low then you can smell plants. If it is too high you smell ozone. Just right, no smell.

You guys would appreciate this too. Incredible bulk has never been purple before but it is this time. Temps were not that cold with lows of 19C(66 Freedom units) but she was right beside the purps and wanted to show her pretty fall colours too ;-)

I have been really busy because I added a wall and door to separate my basement into two parts. Cabinets and dry and trim area in one part with a door to try to contain the smell a little since harvest time smells so bad. It took all of Saturday to do frame,vapour barrier, and drywall and a locking door.
Sunday spent all morning harvesting, washing, drying, cleaned both cabinets, move all veg plants to bloom, two of bloomed plants to reveg (purps and strawberry blue). Now just waiting for the last batch of clones roots to get a little bigger then they move to veg cabinet. Then had Mother's Day dinner and stuff.
Will trim the plants Wednesday right now they are slow drying at 65%rh
