Nice. What's the refill cost/rate?
I really don't use it any more.
My Co2 is around 1600ppm because I'm growing inside,
in a room I'm in at least 12 hrs a day... I'm my own Co2 generator...

But when I did use it, I filled it with this...



$10 gets me 15lbs of Co2... I've never refilled the tank for my grow,
but I didn't waste any with the tent holding it in...

I found that 6000+PPM will make short work of fruit flies,
but the plants didn't seem to notice... that's when I stopped using it.

5 bars pulled less than 25 watts hows the yield compared 2 1000w
Much much smaller... I'll get a solid 2 oz from that tote though. LED's are amazing for micro grows... Scaled up and they aren't that much better than HIDs, except for the fact that they last much longer and are cold...

that bottom pic looks a little wigged out or something. looks a little strange like its getting over-watered or something

No, you have to check out the whole grow... That plant is kind of growing sideways... Its like a ScrOG w/o the screen...

Is that that new 'invisible bud'? That plant is friggin huge!! I've never not seen one with such huge buds... GJ mate!

haha, it really does work great! the coppers will never ketch you growing anything if they can't see it. even if they do ketch you, they'd just laugh and walk away.

sick man, gowin down the LED route myself soon. do they work well? how many do you have in there/ how powerful are they?
*all i will say is, results speak for themselves :) that pic has 400w of LED juice.. just try searching some threads, some ppl are doing comparison LED grows~

Leds's are ok for micro grows , when it comes to a larger setup , you cant get good coverage or penatration , and you lose in bud density , but for dwarf plants and micro grows they are fab, its an evolving market , hopefully better is to come....

ya iv been looking in every thread i can! i ask everyone who looks like they producing dank plants under em and im norrowing down reliable manufacterures. so your sayin your led pulls 400 watts but is comparable to somewhere almost 1000w hps? because im trying to get a very similar set up.

**im not comparing the LEDs i use to MH/HPS output (lumen/PAR).. ill let everyone else argue that to Death ;) --its 400w total, multi/spec LEDs

..cheers

Clonex, I'm not quoting you start up a debate, just to let eveyone else reading this know that leds can indeed work just as well in larger grows as they do in smaller sized grows.

And yes...i grow with leds too :)

Damn just realized how old this thread originally was...revival of the dead thread!

Im not starting any debate , my quote is my opinion after my own trials , i listed 3 issues , 1 Coverage , 2 Penatration , 3 Bud Density , i wish they were not issues but sadly they are, i dont just type because i like the sound of my own voice , if you have overcome these issues growing larger plants , me and a few others no doubt , would be interested how , or , some pictures of a larger commercial type grow that are not fakes posted by a chinese led company ? man im all ears.... or eyes o,O

I realized that what you wrote is your opinion, that's why I said I'm not trying to debate with you (again). We've been down that road already in another thread. I just wanted to provide my own opinion to the other readers because it expresses different beliefs than yours.

Well opinion or not it's still factual , i agree no debate needed , but , if you have found a solution to the 3 issues , i think you should share them ?
