ODORS AND NEGATIVE IONS- Cannabis Marijuana seeds Growing Guide
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.
