Frequently Asked Questions
Scent & Odor Neutralization
1. How do I get rid of the cannabis smell?
The most effective method is odor neutralization at the source, not masking. NIODOR®
uses a 100% natural formula of essential oils that is cold-nebulized via a diffuser
to neutralize the cannabis odor, both in grow and drying rooms as well as in
living areas such as a living room or coffeeshop. Other methods like carbon filters,
candles, gels, or air fresheners only mask the odor or require a
ventilation system.
2. What is the best solution for cannabis odor?
That depends on the situation, but odor neutralization at the source is the most
reliable method, unlike solutions that only mask the odor or require a
ventilation system. NIODOR® uses 100% natural essential oils for this purpose
via cold nebulization, and scores 9.5 out of 10 in independent tests, with no adverse effect on
the plants.
3. Does NIODOR® mask the smell of weed, or does it eliminate it?
NIODOR® does not mask the scent with a chemical fragrance, but neutralizes the
cannabis molecules themselves through adsorption, absorption, and ion neutralization. The result is a
deodorization score of 9.5 out of 10, measured in a grow room during a full
cycle from seedling to drying phase.
4. How does odor neutralization work?
Odor neutralization breaks down or binds odor molecules, rather than masking them with a new scent like an air freshener does. NIODOR® achieves this through adsorption, absorption, and ion neutralization using 100% natural essential oils.
5. What is cold misting?
Cold nebulization is a technique in which a liquid is converted into a fine mist of microdroplets without the use of heat. Because no heat is involved, the active ingredients in the essential oils remain intact, which makes the effect more effective.
6. Does an odor neutralizer work better than an air freshener?
Yes, for the smell of cannabis it is. An air freshener adds its own (often chemical) scent
that mixes with the weed smell, while NIODOR® neutralizes the odor molecules themselves.
That is noticeably more effective in enclosed spaces such as grow tents.
7. How does NIODOR® distinguish itself from carbon filters, sploofs, gels, or candles?
Carbon filters require a ventilation system and are less suitable for small spaces;
sploofs, gels, and candles reduce odor but do not eliminate it completely, and many
air fresheners smell too chemical for spaces where cannabis plants are grown.
NIODOR® is 100% natural, contains no carriers
such as water, alcohol, or gels, and can be used immediately via battery or USB-C, without a
ventilation system. It is therefore safe to use in a grow tent without affecting the plants.
8. How effective exactly is NIODOR®?
Both inside and outside the grow room, the cannabis odor was practically imperceptible in tests, with a deodorization value of 9.5 out of 10.
Applications & Safety
1. Does NIODOR® also work in a grow tent or grow room?
Yes. NIODOR® has been tested throughout a full cultivation cycle, from seedling to drying phase. The cannabis odor is undetectable both inside and outside the grow room.
During the flowering phase, the room smells slightly of tropical rainforest, and during drying, of
hay.
2. How do I remove the smell of cannabis from a drying room?
During the drying process, the odor is often strongest precisely because there is no ventilation.
NIODOR® was tested throughout the entire drying phase and kept the odor imperceptible, without affecting the final product.
3. Does NIODOR® also work outside the grow room, for example in a coffee shop or living room?
Yes. NIODOR® is also suitable for areas where cannabis is consumed, such as
living rooms and coffeeshops, and completely neutralizes the odor there.
4. How do I prevent the smell of weed in my house?
Place the diffuser in the room where you grow, dry, or consume, even before the odor
spreads through the house. Preferably half an hour in advance. NIODOR® continuously emits a fine mist of natural oils, ensuring the odor is neutralized as it arises rather than being combated afterward.
5. What can I do about the smell of cannabis coming from my neighbor?
You cannot do anything about your neighbor's source, but you can prevent the
odor from lingering in your own home or garden by placing a NIODOR® diffuser there.
It neutralizes the cannabis odor entering your home, instead of masking it.
Or ask your neighbor to purchase NIODOR® or give it as a gift.
6. Is NIODOR® safe for my cannabis plants?
Yes. Tests in a renowned laboratory (Betterplants) showed that the plants did not
sustain any form of damage during the entire growth, flowering and drying phase.
7. How many square meters does one NIODOR® diffuser cover?
One diffuser is powerful enough for rooms up to 40m². For larger rooms, you can
place multiple diffusers.
Use & Diffuser
1. Where is the best place to position the NIODOR® diffuser?
The diffuser can be placed upright on a stable surface, or hung on the wall with an adhesive strip.
The dimensions are 24.4 x 16.7 x 4.4 cm. Always keep the diffuser upright to prevent oil leaks.
2. How do I power the NIODOR® diffuser: battery or mains?
Both are possible. The diffuser works both on batteries and via a USB-C cable, and is immediately ready
for use. When using batteries, you can expect an operating time of ±30 days with 12 hours
of use per day.
3. Which settings should I use for my situation?
This depends on the space and the stage of your plants:
Living room/coffee shop (up to ±40m³): From 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM, 5 seconds ON every 5 minutes. Do you still smell anything? If so, first shorten the pause (up to a max. of 120 seconds), and then increase the ON time if necessary (adding 1 second at a time).
Grow tent, 12 – 40 plants (15 m³ or more): As soon as the plants start to flower and become aromatic, 24 hours a day, 5 seconds ON / 300 seconds pause. Do you still smell anything? Shorten the pause by 5 seconds each time (up to a max. of 120 seconds). If that doesn't help enough, increase the ON time by 1 second per step until the odor is gone.
Large grow, up to 36 plants, last week before harvest: 24 hours a day, 17 seconds ON / 120 seconds pause. This also works without a carbon filter.
4. How long will my NIODOR® oil last?
One 147 ml bottle is enough for one flowering cycle of 4–8 plants.
The 300 ml bottle can be used in a small to medium-sized grow tent, from the seedling phase to the drying phase.
