I've never used Advanced Nutrients before so I can't help you with those nutes.
400 PPM? Bag seed?
If I remember right I found out the same thing. It was a long time ago but I remember having to double or triple the output to bring my CO2 up to 1500.
I thought the same thing as you the first time I tried it. I mixed it pretty weak to test it out.stinkbud or buddies
any coments
I dont wanna burn my plants and im 2 chicken to try it yet.
I put some on my skin and it didnt burn me but I bet the little girls are more sensitive. Think this will hurt them?
let you in on my little secret for outdoor animals. The one reason I had horrible luck outdoors before the last 2 years was the darn rabbits , deer, and ground hogs (woodchucks). they would dig up new plants for the peat pellets or peat moss. they loved it. or the deer would eat my big plants. it was very discorageing (sp) anyway. My mom use to take us kids hair after she cut it and put it in the garden. it kept away most bunnys and other animals cause of the human smell and the shampoo smell. so I used that a few times. The hair solon was starting to wonder why I wanted there trash bags of hair. So rather than looking like some weird stalker hairdoll making freak I tried Dryer lint. Yup dryer lint from your laundry. It has soap smell and human smell. I mix a hand full in the top of my soil/soiless mix and put some around the stawk. Bingo no animals will touch them. most pest wont bother them till they get rained on a few months. The deer last year even bedded down 10 ft away from my plants and never touched them. It worked like a charm and now I save my dryer lint all winter long just for my outdoor grows. Plus since I have 4 dogs the dog hair off my cloths ends up in the lint trap and also helps cause the lint now smells like humans and dogs.I thought the same thing as you the first time I tried it. I mixed it pretty weak to test it out.
Guess what? The plants loved it! I would almost have to say it helped the growth rate.
I think the big advantage to staying with organic pesticides is it's not just healthy for you but it's also healthy for your plants.
The only thing wrong with the garlic/pepper spray is the smell. It would great on your outdoor stuff.
Up here in the NW we don't worry about pests outdoors. It's the bunnies and deer that will destroy your crop.
Time for a SB story:
One time me and my buddy decided to plant about 15 clones up in the hills.
We worked for weeks hauling manure and water. Digging holes and getting everything ready was back breaking work.
We hauled gallons of water up steep hills in the hot sun. The plants grew to about 3ft. high within a month or so.
Then one day we came back and every mother fucking plant was eaten down to the ground! Rabbit turds everywhere.
It looked like they had a big fucking rabbit orgy! I bet they all got high as a kite and then fucked like humans...
The next year we fenced off an area and had no problems. Around the end of July I'm like "fuck this" Water is too fucking heavy. Indoors is the only way.
Thanks bro for helping a fellow stink buddy... ive set it to 6 now so we shall see ... im gonna get myself a kit this weekend...
i would think so

hope this helps any outdoor growers too. didnt mean to change the subject or get off course.
Im gona try the home brew sauce I made on a bagseed I just found to be male before hurting my girls.
thanks

I have the dr120. Run a Sentinel controller. Very happy with how CO2 is working. From previous post recently I figure I will go my whole grow with one 20 lb tank. Currently, co2 runs at 4 cfh for 81 seconds per hour to achieve 1500 ppm. From what I have read from Stink he watches the CO2 in his room fall 1-2 ppm per second which is what I see too. I also run a chiller and air cooled 600w hps without problem. The chiller sits outside the tent and the tubes go through one of the side 6 inch openings with double drawstrings. Generally, the double drawstring system works pretty good as do the zippers. Yeah I would recommend the darkroom.
