Co2

When all my equiptment gets in I'll be starting my grow journal but first I have a few more follow up questions mainly about the introduction of CO2 to my 4x4 grow tent. What are the benefits and causes of C02 for my grow? Im doing a 1000w air cooled hood and carbon filter. I have chosen to do 10 5 gallon grow bags in the space if have. Lay it on me. How will CO2 help my grow?
Strain os GPD original granddaddy purp. Was going to grow some liberty haze also but I have learned here recently that it doesn't yield much so I'll just be doing 10 gpd.
Thanks for any advice given.

co2 would be awsome for u. get a chhc4 and a bottle and reg.
hook your cardon filter to the cool function and put a damper on that.
stay with the rapid feeding and keeping plants healthy and your money.
dank all over the place.

People are dicks. Now that is out of the way. Moving on: C02 will help swell those buds by atleast 25%.. It's best to release the C02 above the plants because C02 is heavier than air. when done this way the Co2 will fall onto the plant canopy Only use C02 when the lights are on, Plants don't use it while there sleeping. Also you don't want your ventilation wasting your C02 by knocking it out of your grow space before it's consumed

Its replys like yours which show the need to read actual info
"CO2 will help swell buds by AT LEAST 25%" lol what a BS statement. this is how myths are started.

No just we are talking about the same question as another is asked. Do you know how maytimes aday we get the same question? You simply posted shortly after I answered the last one. And you want to read up befor adding co2 to a tent. It will save you money.

It's a open ended tent. Co2 isn't great. If you suck air out you are sucking co2 out. The best thing for then is to get the npk right along with temps and light. After that then work up the sealed with AC and humidifiers/dehumidifiers then ad co2. Other rise it just a waste o money. Why dump it in if your hmjust going to suck it out?

You answered one of the main things I was curious about. How would it help in a tent where I am constantly filtering the air out of my tent. The setup I have I guess shouldn't be used with CO2 if I'm needing to be sealed air tight.

fuck it then board up the tent with ply wood, or ditch the tent go get some 2x2 frame a 5x5 room make it a little taller than a tent. silicone the in side after u sheet the 2x2 with ply wood. sheet rock the inside after u screw it to geather.
make your cut outs and hook it all up. done tons of bud. dream grow your about to get into. thank me latter friend.

You need to get everything eles under control befor thinking of co2 or sealed. It real a big step but with out know how you are still wasting money. Get basic down first.

Yup, you're essentially being wasteful w/regards to time, effort, and money when you're exhausting everything. At the very least, you'd want to have some sort of a time/interval where air isn't being exhausted but then you're either dealing with a burner or tank and a whole other bag of worms. I have a buddy that uses the bags for CO2 in his tents but I can't say that he's improving anything. Keep it simple and control the environment to as close to perfection as can be OR, just revamp, research and plan for a different set up. That's the only way CO2 is going to be a decent option for ya that isn't just plain wasteful.

Yeah I'm good on the Co2 then. I'm just going follow a grow chart strictly and grow the best I can as this is my first grow. Really excited. I feel I'll do well.

So you are stating that if your yield is at an ounce of weight adding CO2 would not at least give you an ounce+7gs.?
