C0

Ive recently been wanting to get better at this craft and I'm wondering if I should put the extra effort and get a co2 tank and regulator I've seen on here where people don't use it and some that do.So the question is should I or not and if so how long would a 20 pound tank last if I seal my 4 by 4 tent and do I use it through the whole growth cycle?

It's only helpful if all the conditions are near perfect in your grow, if not it can cause more harm than good.

it can be helpful if your temps are too high, but how are you goung to seal and cool a tent? mini split ac? window shaker ac? if your temps are under control i would skip it. if you do run co2, you want a timer and exhaust fan that clears the tent at lights off.

There's a lot of benefits, but I personally think that until you become a more experienced grower, you should concentrate on all other aspects of your grow, adding c02, imo should only be used once you master the art of growing.
That's just my opinion, and I am certainly not by any means, a master grower.

Don't bother with Co2 right now. Learn about it first before bothering with it. I've never used it myself but I know several people that had similar sized grows as myself that have. I always outperformed them in yield and quality without it. Not to say it doesn't have benefits. It's just if not used properly all you do is waste money.

Thanks for the input man I actually have a window AC cooling the little room the tents in so far it seems to be doing a good job with cooling the sealed tent.I think I'ma skip it for now untill I get a little better this is only my third grow indoors and I'm not really wanting to spend more money when people say I'll be ok without it ya know 25 percent more yield just sounds good lol
