CANNABIS
ODORS AND NEGATIVE IONS
Negative ion
generators have been used for years now to cut down on odors in
a grow room, but reports are coming in that a negative ion
generator will increase growth speed and yield. No true evidence
to support this, however it does make sense, due to the fact
that people and animals seem to be altered in a positive way by
negative ions in the air, so plants may "feel" better too. Try
putting one in the grow room. You may notice the buds don not
have as much scent when picked, but that may be desirable in
some cases.
A negative ion
generator can be purchased for $15 to $100 depending on the type
and power involved. Some have reversed cycles that collect the
dust to a charged plate. It is also possible to use grounded
aluminum foil on the wall and shelf where the ionizer sits, to
collect these particles. Just wipe the foil clean once a month.
It should be grounded to an electrical outlets ground wire. If
you don not cover the wall and shelf with paper or foil, the
wall will turn dark with dust taken from the air, and you will
have to repaint that wall later
