this is for 5 plants i dont expect them all to live so i figured the light be well over enough but i cant figure out how much CO2 i need and how often i should run it, any help would be appreciated. i want to purchase the co2 in the next 2 weeks. i know Co2 will raise the temp so ill need to adjust ventilation and fans accordingly. ive tried the calculators. anyone with Co2 experience would be greatly appreciated and thank you

You just need fresh air not co2. Get a book on marijuana growing, read and you'll do fine...Good luck with your grow.

Use the CO2-in-a-bag stuff. ExHale. No electricity needed, no batteries, no heat or timers or . . .. Put it up high in the tent as it is slightly heavier than air and leave it for 90 days or whatever and then replace it.

dont ever do co2 in a bag. shit does not work as long as you got a vent fan. if you got a closed off room with no air circulation, then it might raise your co2 ppm. take your money and get a real co2 tank or generator.

plain and simple. IF you do not use c02 with a monitor to control the ppms exactly when the lights are on. and no release when off. you are wasting your time and money. do it right or not at all.
proper intake and exhaust will provide enough c02.

Growing is like learning to play the guitar. You should get the basics down first. There is no way to jump to an advanced level without practise and experience. Learn to play a 6 string before a 12 string. Bringing in fresh air regularly is plenty for new growers. C02 is for larger, sealed grows and you better have a grand to invest. My suggestion? Get a couple crops under your belt. Spend your money on odor control.
