Default Is Co2 for outdoors good?
I have my plants growing out doors and I was wondering if co2 tanks would be a good investment, or if co2 is better for indoor use. The girls are in an area about 20x10 ft and surrounded by brick. Also, if I do use co2 should I use it throughout the entire veg and flowering process? Thank you

You should preload the area with CO2 for a few months prior to planting, then run it 24/7.. Depending on the wind, 500-600 tanks/day should be sufficient.. Would get pretty pricey though.. I guess another option would be to get a genetically engineered hamster/wolverine/killer-bee cross and let him both supply the plants with CO2, and guard them from thieves..

You can use it in a greenhouse, If you can somehow manage to wrap the hose around your outdoor plants I suppose it can work, but not as good as it would indoors.

Best outdoor CO2 supplimentations are things like busy roads, bakeries, or industry being in the vicinity..

LOL at the OP. I guess he doesn't understand that CO2 is a gas and doesn't just plop out of the tank and sit beside your plants when you turn it on

Well it is about 1.5x as dense as typical air, and he is in a courtyard of sorts, but a small breeze will flush all that CO2 in seconds without a ceiling.. On the otherhand, 10x20' isn't impossible to cover with clear plastic, but then back to the original hand, that kills intensity quite a bit, and intensity/CO2 go hand in hand.. I'm really torn as to whether that would be beneficial or counter-productive, but considering the extra cost, and need for wiring if it doesn't exist in that area, I'd probably just let nature do its thing..
