im on my first ever grow, and i figured 1 bag was worth a shot.
cant say if it helped or not but..
i have my setup in a closet next to my sliding glass door in my bedroom. plenty of fresh air does come in. but hey, why not, 20 bucks for a tiny bit of peace of mind at the time. next run i might not bother with it, but i dont know.

All, I'm really not sure why there is even a question about using Exhale Bag. They advertise tens of thousands of PPM's of CO2, but there are is no direct distribution to each plant. There is also no pump and since plants only take in CO2 with the lights on, the Exhale Bag wastes half of the little CO2 that it does produce when the lights are out. Does anyone know how long it lasts?
I have been using CO2Boost for 4 years now and it is amazing. My uncle has a high powered CO2 meter he uses in his mushroom farms and CO2 Boost reads off the charts!! We tested the Exhale bag side by side and it took a day and a half for the Exhale Bag to fill up the same bag that took CO2Boost 30 seconds!! No comparison.
Here's an article just posted out on CO2Boosts Website -It will be in the next High Times and Max Yield as well:

I think 4 bags would produce WAY more co2(4 bags in an area that small it would be 1700+ ppm, my 2 bags keep my tent around 1000-1200) in a 6'x6'x6' over 3 months then a co2 boost would and it would be like $25 cheaper and no running lines around. And the bag needs light to put off CO2 so in a way it kinda " Shuts off " when the lights go off, still produces just not as much at night.

Maybe you already did this, but mine arrived as rock hard bricks as well, all white on the outside....that being the 'spent' product.
You gotta break all that up, mix it up, and they'll start producin.
But maybe you already did that.
Just my 2 cents.
Ok, I just got my Exhale bag a few days ago. No idea WHY I didn't think of this before but all you have to do for the light is unhook the carbon filter then route the air duct OUTSIDE the grow tent. So it sucks in air ONLY to cool the light, as opposed to exhausting the room. SO that co2 bag can be more effective. I realized a co2 tank set up would cost me 400-500 bucks and went with the bag! Oh, the bags are $30!!!!!!! I can get them at either of the 2 hydroponic stores right here in my town. SO, about 3 or 4 days ago I put the bag in and sealed the room (and re-routed the exhaust). So nice in there. Temp is ALWAYS perfect now, it's so moist, and the plants are getting plenty of co2 cuz they've grown 2" in 2 days (except for the biggest... 6" in 2 days). We are currently on day 10 of flowering. I say thumbs up for a small space! Oh, I have a 4x4 growtent.

Hey, little of an older thread here but I have just gotten one these bags and have since notice a white residue growing along the side of my smart pots, cant figure out what it is except maybe from the stuff in this bag. My humidity is near zero so I dont think its some mold from humidity. Anyways, so far I think this bag has really pushed my seedlings along well, I have noticed some pretty rapid growth since I put it in my 3x3x6 tent a few weeks ago, very healthy. Now my hood is too rounded to put the bag on top of it, I need to hang it up, just been busy, so I have it sitting on the floor with the pots and a strong fan blowing on and upwards over the canopy, also I vent through a scrubber>to hood>to fan> and out of the tent, so I dont know if the fan would just pull all of the c02 out even though they say it all falls down. The only way I can figure out to keep the tent cool would be just running the fan to cool the hood and running my portable ac into it, but then Im sure smell would come out of the tent which I dont want.
So maybe this should just be in a c02 thread, but how could I make use of this c02 bag and still run a scrubber, and this damn bag give off enough c02 to stop exchanging the air?

I am trying to figure out this same thing in my tent! how do i control odor while supplementing c02 at the same time! The only thing i can think of would be to use a smaller exhaust fan and filter or cycle it on a timer!
let me know if you figure something out!
I will do the same!

Its a pickle, I think your right though, smaller fan and filter and on some sort of timer, for my tent though I have to cool with something like an ac because it sits in a hot room.

i just put a couple of rhiostats (dimmer switches) on my fans, just hooked the outlet to the switch as if it were aceiling fan. works great.
Hey guys first let me say I almost walked away from this topic cause of the whining earlier , grow up be the better man. My question though is how high have you let your temps climb with the exhale . It's summer and I'm looking for a mother plant with 6 strains under a 1000 watt.

Does anyone have a harvest vs harvest yield CO2 bags vs no CO2 bags comparison? I do not have any supplemental CO2 in my room, flower room is 10 by 10, and I am getting about 2 oz per plant right now. trying to decide if the cost for a CO2 supplement is worth any additional yields? I have a friend who has a CO2 tank and moniter, and his yields have not improved...... thoughts? I am a newbie

If your room isn't sealed and your moving alot of air to keep it cool it won't do much for you. If the room is cool without pulling all your air out a few bags will take you above ambient of 300 ppm. If your sealed I say there a must. My co2 tanks runout on me at the worst times. So the bags help give the plants co2 when tanks are empty. As far as yield I haven't checked. But anytime your temps are right, lights are set and nutes are there. A boost of co2 above 300ppm helps with yield.
