I run 1500 ppm all thru flowering and the last thing my flowers are is airy.
I am very interested to know how u cane to that conclusion? Did u read that somewhere? Ive never heard that b4.
I have been also running at 1500 and having a hell of a time keeping it that high honestly. If its fluctuating too much is it better to turn my High down to 1400-1350? Just dont want to do harm with fluctuations. I have great controller and now wondering if i am wasting my co2 while running when sleeping? Sorry if thats stupid question but dont care if can get solid answer and learn more. THANKS!

Running your co2 while lights are out is a waste of co2. I don't think the co2 fluctuating will harm your plants at all I run my bunner 5min 1hr off during 12/12.

A little advice bro co2 is for seasoned growers that have truly mastered the art if u don't fully understand it u can do more harm than good fully automated your room and the dose will know when lights are off and will operate fans heaters and deal with humidity if u can't set your room at the correct environment it is a massive waste of time :) if your in the US I can't really say how much a system will set u back but over here in the UK to manage it its guna set u back probably about ÂŁ1000 hope this helps :)

So what your saying is any extra co2 will be beneficial in the end regardless of fluctuations and steadyish levels? I would think so but read another post which threw me off but then again thats why I'm on here. To learn as much as possible

Thanks man.. $700 plus cost of tanks of course. Got the right stuff but learning to use it correctly as i go honestly. By next run it'll be much more complete and if i waste a little on Co2 meanwhile I'll just hope it was a lesson learned. As I already changed things bc of post and replies so I see the light

Incorrect the plants need to be in the sweet zone for co2 to be any use please don't think u can throw a burner or summat in the corner and it will 300% your yield like the advertise the most benifit is from veg them suckers can fly up so if your only running say a couple of plants under your light u could possibly create a extra crop per year from saved veg time

A little pic of 1 of my co2 systems that I use this will only dose when in the sweet spot will control fan in and out and heaters also humidity the pic is missing a co2 analyser and a temp/humidity sensor gimme 5 mins and I will find a pic of the missing sensors :)

No no..I figure if I get extra 10 percent its paying its way man. That alone would reimburse me and some so will make adjustments as i read and learn more. Thank

Yes that's what I'm saying especially in sealed environment. I agree with using co2 during veg also can speed things up a lot.

Appreciate the pics and info. Totally different setup and style I see but taking what I can from this and will use it to best of my ability. DWC and injection straight into looks nice but i cant exactly do that with mine.

If your in a sealed environment it's essential for any sort of growth but them rooms can be extremely costly and I don't see the benefits unless there is absolutely no way 9 passive air exchange

This is what I'm working on now! Need to get this air exchange fixed and corrected or waste a shit ton of loot. Obviously thats not an option so i am talking to others so i dont have to have anyone over obviously. Just rather youtube and learn on my own.
