Is co2 worth all the trouble?

I have a full c02 tank and regulator. I had it from My kegerator project.

Well I was wondering is it gonna be worth the trouble for me to spend $20 on a solinoid valve and $20 on a new timer and set this thing up with a hose around the top of my plants on time release?

I mean how much more growth will it provide?

Also how often would you time release it and for how long.

Lastly, about how long will one 20 Lb tank last useing the advised dosing parameters

the amount you realease from the regulator depens on how big the rrom is and how many plants are breathing.


my 10x10 is realeased @ 3.2 scfm for 15 minutes starting 1.5 hours after i cycle the lights. then it runs 2.1 scfm 15 on and of till 15 minutes before lights off. with co2 you want to keep temps 72-75 to detur extra elongation
