Is it worth it?

Is the co2 bucket worth it? It costs $135 for setup and refills cost $110. They last for two months and produce over 800 ppm through air pump.

Depends on your budget. I hear great things adding co2 to your grow! KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

No imo. Co2 should only be used for big indoors operations. It's not needed for small cultivation

Two 1000 watt hps isn't big enough?

Co2 is mainly used in a room that is completely closed up. If its not then ya must close it up.

I was reading that even if the room isn't 100% tight it will still work as long as the hose is close to the plants.

This is what you need

It cost me $140 for the valve on ebay, the 50lb tank cost $60 bucks a year to rent & its $19 for refills. I rent it from a welding supply store. You want co2 not beer mix. It'll cost a little more up front but it's worth it.

Go for it! The answer to your question is that is its worth it if ya have to have extra co2 to grow. Its cheaper and easier to pump some in the room.

Are you the real Mclovin? haha What do you use to measure your ppm?

I am McLovin. I don't use anything to measure my ppm. I used an online calculator to calculate the release rate for 1800ppm. LINK.

what you need is a co2 generator. It burns propane and releases pure co2. they are bout 200 bucks. they last a long ass time on one tank.

I was looking at those, don't they give off a bunch of heat considering they use burners?
