all im gonna say is co2 is the shit. im running regular ventilation at the moment, but i miss co2 soooo much. fuck autoflowers when you have the co2 tuned in right,

fuck autoflowers period...waste of time and money for not even mid level weed and I wont use mids at all

haha wasnt the point (read my sig i you want to know my feelings) the point was i can flower a photo period plant in the same amt. of time with co2 and have a bigger yield and better bud.

my issue wasnt control or timing, but my tents are too porous.

thanks for the reply..i think i may have to add some extra co2 to the mix now lol sounds promising
Well I got autos this time(first time). Gonna try it out (narcotic kush) with CO2. Guess ill see first hand huh. Hmmm guess you've had one hell of an experience with autos to hate that bad? With me I don't listen to anyone. Do want I'm gonna do then I figure out good or bad. Ha they call that being stubborn. But I will say I'll bet it'll be some fire regardless !!!

my issue is not with the plants, but with the breeder advertising and price, those seeds should be dirt cheap. end of story sorry ruderellis genetics will always be there if its s true autoflower and this means several things mostly that the quality and yeild will be lower, by a fair margin, but it doesnt mean bad weed or a waste of time but for the prices of those seeds they are.
Poly, I getcha. Kite, that's some funny shit. But totally agree. Gotta put me back or it's just not worth smokin. Well wish me luck that the ruderal & pure afghan will do it. I'm gonna def. let u guys know now. Lol. Feels almost like a dare. Anyway it's too late to stop now. Already in the making. Just gotta whip this co2 thing & it's a wrap. Going to get another tank tomorrow. Then gonna run some tests & see if it works.

and please do not think I am hating on anyone that grows autos as there is a place for everything to everyone...thats what makes this hobby kick ass is you can find exactly what YOU want eventually...I am close...about to cross c99 with Ortega's Deathweed...both do it for me vivid visuals and all...everyone else who has tried the deathweed became paranoid but me...lol...I WANT WEED THAT SCARES ME...hopefully this will be it as both are very high in thcv and very little cbd....and most of all I hope the c99 brings down the Deathweed's 16 week flower time without losing the magic...figured since c99 had the visuals as well it just may accooplish that goal and mamybe even retain the pineapple, mango or pez flavors

I know this is an old message and I am not trying to start anything but how can you say fuck auto flowers....You just have not grown the right ones yet. When you get a chance try growing Dutch Passion Think Different and you will see. Mine are pulling 250g pp w/o co2 in soil and 300+ in my DWC system.. it's to bad when someone has negative thought about something just because they don't like it or didn't have good luck with it...Also the smoke from them is awesome. It for sure compares to headband any day and it says its a 65-85 day strain but after 80 days is when it packs weight and onto day 90 then flush a week totaling about 100 days...

first of all dutch passion is already known to be some subpar shit dont get me wrong you can find something good or they may have a few decent strains but too many people have had too many problems including myself to ever give them my money again..now that said most autos ive seen dont wait long enough to flower so you wind up flowering this dinky little thing also they are all bred with ruderalis which is an inferior species of cannabis in the first place. if you had good luck more power to you thats great but for me and many others their is absolutely no benefit! why not take a non auto then you can control timing you can clone off of it and use the best as a mother to perfect your garden, autos are one and done..and now i must say i simply do not believe you 250 grams dry is hard enough to pull on a non auto with a good veg time for you to tell me you got over a half of a pound on a single auto is just not believeable..unless it was wet weight in which case your looking at more like 2-3 zips after it dries and that is believeable..but..it also isnt impressive or any better than a non auto strain

| Zamaldelica grows very bushy outdoors with uncountable branches. Although this sativa shows all its potential in tropical/subtropical climates, it has also been grown with very good results even in latitudes 43ºN. For indoor growing for small columnar plants or SOG, start straight from clones to 12/12 just a couple of days after the rooting. This sativa is adequate for SCROG, horizontal or network growing due to its excellent production of lateral branches and its vigorous reaction to pruning. |

Carbon Dioxide's Role in Plant Growth
With respect to CO2 utilization, plants are divided into two types: C3 plants and C4 plants. These names essentially distinguish two types of photosyntensis. C3 photosynthesis (so called because the photosynthetic process yields 3-carbon derivatives) has a problem in that sometimes O2 fills the role that CO2 is supposed to fill. When it does, much of the energy that goes into photosynthesis is wasted. C4 plants, on the other hand, starts with a gate, of sorts, that keeps much of the O2 out, so this waste happens less often.
Most plants, including plants used in agriculture, are C3 plants. This includes lemon trees (virtually all trees, in fact), sugar beets, and potatoes. Corn and surgarcane are C4 plants.
Each type of plant reacts to a change in CO2 concentrations differently. C4 plants already use CO2 efficiently. An increase in the concentration does not help them much. C3 plants, on the other hand, benefit greatly from increases in CO2 because less of the inefficient O2 photosynthesis occurs. Plants in a high CO2 environment increase their plant mass by 20 to 25%. Yields of some crops can be increased by up to 33%. This is the effect of doubling CO2 concentrations over Earth normal. Still higher concentrations can be expected to yield still better results.
Note, however, that the effects vary even among different types of C3 plants. Some are better able to take advantage of higher CO2 concentrations than others, and a few actually suffer if CO2 concentrations are raised.
But, there's a catch. These benefits occur only if the nutrient levels and the amount of water available also increase. CO2 alone does very little good. Consequently, to take advantage of a higher CO2 concentration, we must supply more water and bring in more nutrients (such as nitrogen).
In fact, there is more than one catch. As a plant's production of starch from CO2 increases, it seems to reach some sort of saturation point. It reaches a point where it can no longer take advantage of the greater abundance of CO2. Scientists suspect that this is because there is a bottleneck in the plant's metabolic system. It can manufacture more starch, but it can't get it to where it is needed - or it can't use what it is getting. At this point, you might as well bring the CO2 concentration back down to normal levels for all the good you're doing. Or, if this point is close to the plant's maturation point, you can harvest it and plant the next crop.
[Note: high conentrations of CO2 allows the plant to use water more efficiently. This is because the passageways that allow CO2 into the plant also let H2O out. Under higher CO2 concentrations, these passageways can be kept more tightly constricted, allowing less H2O to escape. But there is a tradeoff here between CO2 fertilization and efficient use of water. To the degree you have one, you must give up the other.]
