    Default Co2 tabs

    This grow i have been using co2 tablets. I fill a jug of water and put a tablet in it. It fizzles and dizzles for about 24 hours. I have no way of showing if it helps or not. I dont have any meter do messure it either. Does any1 know how good they actually work? Or have you used it or are using it in your current grow?

    Why not use the reishii mushroom bags? Hang it and forget it.

    Also, they last for a full grow cycle. I got a bag for about $25. I'd be interested in doing it again but only after getting a meter and figuring out the before and after.

    Cheers,

    I did read about the "The Exhale" bags but they are very expensive. Looking at 90$ a bag ready imported. Need to find some1 with a meter that can test it xD

    I always thought that you needed a sealed environment for co2 to be worthwhile. I've often thought about the bags, but my extract will transfer the air so often that it doesn't seem like it would work.

    Thats allso true. Good point. Co2 is a heavy gas but I guess the fans just picks it up.

    Dutch growers developed what they call 'Fast Air'. To get more co2 to the plants, the extraction rate is 5 times per minute. As soon as the plant uses some co2, it's replaced by more fresh air.

    Like having a shoe box sized larder to feed a family. It gets filled every minute so nobody goes hungry. nft works on the same principle, the constant stream means that the roots are always touching fresh nutes.

    As Loki says, think of the air transfer of your room, it's designed for constant renewal of air
