CO2 on the cheap
- Thread starter tibberous
- Start date
About 600 ppm - less than half of whats optimal. I also try to never take in much air, due to the risk of pests / male pollen.

i ran a completely sealed room for 2 years before adding co2 and had great yields. they will do fine with just you exhaling in the room. wait and do it right, that heater idea sounds like a very bad one.

They stink, and they can be dangerous as well. If you want added CO2 they have them bags you can hang up that last like a month at a time. I've never used it either and I have a sealed room that only brings air in but not out. I dont have a scrubber to clean the outgoing

But, $5+ per gallon for kerosene for 8-10 hours burn, plus you will have the added heat, fire risk, etc. I personally wouldn't.
If you want a cheap alternative, spend more time in your room, maybe take your dog or cat with you to help out.

Dude, you must live in a brewery! The rest of us have to make do with only 250-300 ppm in "normal" air. If I could get 600 ppm out of my air, I would be happy and never look back!

Looks like 395 is outdoor air, but I believe indoor air is around 600, because or people, hot water heaters, smoking, stoves, pets, ect.
In the winter, a single fireplace can keep my basement warm and 1600ppm - and thats with lots of plants consuming it.

Bullshit.
I'm sure you've tested this with your co2 monitor right?
Might was well buy a hedgehog, they make co2.
That is pretty shitty. Thought they ran longer...
