Hello and thanks up front for any help on this subject. I bought a 4’ x 4’ x 7’ grow tent a few months ago after doing my first two grows in a closet (good to come out of the closet). I have a pretty powerful light (ViparSpectra XS2000) and another
(not so powerful) 45W led hanging as well. I added a carbon filter inline filtration system as well which keeps temp and rh stable at desired numbers.
I bought two jars of “ProCO2” and want to optimize my chances of increasing the CO2 in the tent and keeping at a level high enough to make a difference. I assume I should put the ventilation system on a timer to keep CO2 in tent for part of the day. I haven’t tried it yet but I expect temperatures in the tent without ventilation to exceed 90°. What I’m looking for help with is:
• How many hours a day should ventilation system be turned off for the jarred CO2 system to be effective?
•. I normally keep inside temperature of tent at 80-82° with lights on and 75-78° with lights off. If temperatures get up to the mid 90s during the lighted hours with ventilation system turned off am I doing more harm than good?
Any advice from some of the veteran tent growers on how they integrate a jarred CO2 source will be greatly appreciated
