You could probably use it, but I imagine it wouldn't produce enough C02 to get you to ~1500ppm. And it probably wouldn't last long, so you may find yourself paying for excessive amounts of yeast for little to no reason. If you wanna run C02, it should be done with AT LEAST a tank and regulator. Preferably a generator and controller. Just my opinion of course.

yea i really wanna run co2 and as much as i dont mind spending money on my garden it just seems stupid not to use the gas already in my house. Like going out and buying water instead of just getting a filter and using what you already have flowing thru the pipes

There are natural gas co2 generators out there relatively cheap. A quick google search for natural gas co2 generator brought up a few in the 400-500 dollar range when you click on the shopping link.

Does anyone have an idea how 1500 ppm co2 will affect any pests in your garden? I'm hoping it will either help control, reduce or eliminate them. Appreciate any past experiences.
