Tried the DIY CO2, I must have put too much of something. about 5 minutes after I shook the bottle the yeast started to gush out of the bottle, nothing hit the plants but the room now wreaks of fermenting yeast. I cleaned up as much as I can but there are areas where I cant reach to clean up. Is it cool to just leave the little remain on the floor till it dries out or do I need to clean it up. Am I hurting my plants?

first off the bottle is too full. how big a bottle did you use?
i am going to be using a 5 gallon sparklets bottle and i will only fill it half way. i will also be using A vapor trap.
this way i can pick it up and give it a light shake without it overflowing.

go big if ya can

Yeah I used one of those water cooler bottles. 1/5 yeast 1/5 sugar water to half way. Anyway, my last grow did well without so I aint doing it till my next grow. The room is all cleaned out now. That way a nightmare, working in the dark save a couple of 25W green bulbs which I put in the room instead of the regular white ones.

Thanks all.
