Co2 2 weeks ago, went by the formula, but got a reader last week (cap) and sure thing, I was waaay low. Benefits show above 800ppm but peak between 1100 - 1500ppm. I maintain mine at about 1400-1500ppm during lights on with awesome growth. I do not run exhausts during lights on, and my Co2 never turns off. It runs on a constant setting of .4 cft and hour in order to maintain the 1400-1500ppm. My temps are holding between 80 and 90 degrees. My only concern is the res temps which go up during lights on to about 81 degrees but drop back down again to 71 during lights off. I will try to insulate the resorviors and hopefully once the canopys are full I will maintain lower res temps. Only other option is external res or chillers, please not!!!
Btw, fuck the Hermies, I lost my last grow to Hermies. I switched back to not femd seeds.
Good luck mate,

word up bro! i do neen that fkn meter bad, guesing is for the birds. i need to harvest first tho, what kind of bitch is that! i may just turn it up for now and see what happens. How many plants and how big is your area? for comparison. have you figured out how much co2 the plants use in an hour?
check this: i managed to get 14 hemies out of my flower room over 3 weeks and have not had a single seed show up! also one of my mom plants went hella hermie after i topped the shit out of it, couse it got so tall, it came back with huge clusters of pollen sacks. it was a g-13x rock bud plant. the only one out of 10 that made it too. i was pissed. and yeah, fuck female seeds, thats the same shit you get when you get bag seeds from your dank, couse your dealers> growers> plants obviously went hermie on him for you and i to end with seeds in our bags, you know? fem seeds are the product of a female pollinating its self=hermie. no thanks. peace bra
