i use the sugar, yeast and water in a bottle thing like mountaindude... just drill a very tiny hole in the top and CO2 releases slowly over 2 weeks.... shake up the bottle for a burst of CO2.... you can actuallly see all the tiny bubbles rushing to the top and you you start to smell the yeast... so i know it works... plus their where days when i would go look at my plants 24 hours later.. and they appeared a darker green then before

why not just make some wine if you are going to go through the process just to throw it out? What about using co2 cannisters for a bb gun? If you could say, puncture the tip of the cannister and allow the gas to slowly escape while setting it under the plant(s)? Of corse I would only do this in a confined area with no fans etc,.

its called a CO2 generator... you can google it..... you get a 2 Liter soda bottle...2 cups of sugar, 2 cups of water, 1/4 teaspoon of yeast.... dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup of WARM water...not HOT..... and after that mix everything together.... make sure you use a soda bottle because soda bottles are flexible and are made for CO2 buildups...... and also drill a tiny hole in the soda bottle cover before you start the process.... because if you don't.... the bottle will explode from the CO2 buildup

you can use Seltzer water but i didn't want to mention it because you have people on here who swear you shouldn't give plants Seltzer water and they say the roots don't need CO2, just oxygen.... when in reality they are WRONG... I am not an expert grower but the reason i know they are wrong.. 1) i tried it and it didn't harm my plants at all 2) i looked up a study done with 2 plants Water Vs. Seltzer Water... it showed a chart and the experiment was done over a series of months...so it wasn't a bullshit study... and the plant fed Seltzer Water actually grew healthier and bigger than the plant that was fed water... (it even became smarter.... meaning... when certain leaves started to die when they conducted a dry experiment... the plant started to grow leaves at the bottom instead of the top like every plant that is fed water) because the theory is since plants roots do need oxygen... the bubbles are feeding both to the roots and people didn't know roots can benefit from CO2 because of the whole plant leaf using CO2 thing.... and what was also a plus sign... the bubbles help loosen dirt around the plants roots so they do have the room to breathe easier.... there are many that will dispute this... but like i said... i looked it up for myself because you can't depend on weed growers to know and understand all aspects of plant life.... you also need people who know plants.... just make sure its seltzer water with NO SODIUM... maker sure its all zeroes in the nutrional column on the back of the bottle.... oh yeah.... there are people on here that will say don't water your plants seltzer water...just spray it... i don't know anything about this or if it works... but i do know you can give your plant seltzer water as long as there's NO SODIUM

i recall people on here using the cans full of air.... i think one guy said he taped the handle down so it will give a slow leak.... i don't know how long it last for him..... puncturing a canister just seems unsafe to me.. thats pressure built up instead...

you will need
5 gal bucket with cover
3 small plastic hoses
5 lb bag of sugar
yeast
if you want
fish tank pump
timmer
one of thoes fish rock that makes bubbles

ok drill 3 holes in cover just the size of your hoses as they need to be sealed.

four if you are using the fish pump. put all hoses thure the holes 3 inches glue or calk them sealed.

same for the hose from the fish pump,but this hose run the the bottom. this comes on in the day light hours it sturs the water making more co2.

now you run the 3 hoses up to the celling and down over the plants.

only thing left is to make the mix

fill bucket half full with water and 5lb sugar.

make yeast as the derictions say to. slap the cover on and wait. this last me one week. hope this helps.
