I understand that when you are implementing co2 to your grow that it is ok for your temps to reach 90F. But, do I have to raise the temps in order to maximize the performance of the co2?

Well, not really because you could kill your plants. I know raising the temperature will increase the plant's "sweating" making more c02 run trough the plant, too much could stunt the plant. You know what happens whe you give a human too much oxygen. You dont have too increase the temperature beacause the speed off the breathing doesn't increase.

Now I've got you, a new-jack, telling me NO; And on a duplicate thread, an Elite forum member telling me YES. What the hell people? It can only go one way. I think I'm gonna choose the way of experience. Thank you for your attempted advice.

I would check that a little bit more, poke. I think you will find 85 to be closer to ideal. At 90 may not kill them, which makes it ok, not desired. Sorry I was just watching your avitar and got lost foe a while...... VV

hey SerO, don't be a jack-ass. I do have fans on 24/7. And I wasn't planning on raising the temps to 110 degrees. So don't go giving me your little kiddie, "whatever dude", bullshit.

Victor, I didn't want to raise my temps at all. I just wanted to know if I had to in order to make the co2 work properly.
Everyone always says that you don't want your temps to get above 75F on average, unless you are using co2, then you can go as high as 90F. So I was just wondering if I had to raise the temps.
