HELP!!! LOL>>>>Well i tried it with two small bottles and it seemed to work good . I fucked up by putting in two more with the too much yeast and they overflowed everywhere overnight. WILL THIS HURT MY PLANTS IF THE MIXTURE IS IN THE SOIL????

you can also just put your tube in a bucket of water ... it will do the same thing as an airlock!

There is no need for an airlock at all as the true purpose of an airlock is to let things out and nothing in. Considering you're not 'brewing' something you'll drink, sanitation is not a concern.

On my brewing kit i have a bubble stop that fits in the end of my bottle , it bubbles away as fermentation releases co2 , you could get 1 and sit counting your c02 BuBBles , blup , blup , blup........

unless you like lots of fruit flies, ants and other insects in your grow room, you should use an air lock.

its not really prison wine considering you aren't drinking it. also i fail to see how tinfoil can possibly be a better seal than a 2 chamber water valve seal..... air can go around foil... it cant really go around water... an intake fan is only good if you have exhaust also, the point is to get the oxygen away from the plants while also supplying elevated levels of Co2

So if someone brews a batch a beer and doesn't drink it, does that make it something other than beer???

Foil is better because it's cheaper and wont clog from a vigorus ferment. The ONLY point of an airlock is to keep a sanitary fermenter sanitary. You're not drinking it so it doesn't need to be sanitary. Oh yeah, newb growers and brewers alike love to watch the airlock bubbles :lol:.

Thanks for clarifying :roll:. Do you want some honest advice on how YOU can yield more? Grow more plants in your tent and use more wattage. Quit wasting your time on bubba's prison wine.

So, for those of you who have nothing to say but verbal diarrhea, can you just stay out of this thread? It started off great, and now it's just turning in to an argument.
If you don't use it , then great, no need to intervene after you have said your piece.

Keep the info coming guys. It's been informative thus far.

Not bad actually. In a few minutes I'll post a pic of the plant WITH the co2, and then I'll post a pic of the largest of the 2 NON co2 plants

OK, I'm still trying to find my pics from the week prior (week 2) for a more fair comparisson, but I assure you both plants were nearly exactly the same last week.

Below are the pics of co2 -vs- non co2. The first pic shows Plant "A" on the left and plant "C" on the right. Both are feminized White Widow seeds. Both started in the same dirt, same conditions except for the co2. Plant "A" has been receiving a homemade co2 concoction for just over a week now, while "C" has not.
The other 2 pics show more of a close-upof the 2 plants.

Well there you have it folks. An enormous sample group with CO2 meters, a complete flowering cycle and cloned genetics. Wait a minute..... :lol:
