C02 bathing

How long do you let the plants "bathe" in the c02 that gets injected via automatic hardware? Is 1/2 hour enough for them and then kick on the vent fans again?

Hello Hydro,

What you want to do is get a co2 controller and raise the Co2 levels to the same ppm as your water.. (if you are growing hydro/aero)... you only use the co2 when the lghts are on. the controller should have a light sensor...

The room should be air tight and it should not take more than 5-10 minutes to get your room up to the proper co2 levels...

cheers - hope this helps

Hey there GK. Know of any cheap controllers in which you speak of? The ones that I have seen are petty costly. I've got to make a R.O.I pretty dang soon or I'm in the red lol. Not cool.
