CO2 from fermentation

[whitekushberry]

I have in my flowering room 5gal of beer fermenting. I have know Idea how much co2 is coming from it but All the plants are showing more growth and larger buds are forming. So I was wondering if any one elce has tryed this and if there is any improvements I could look into. I would love to use a co2 tank and regulator but that is not in the buget for now. Any ideas or comments are welcome

 

Thanks

Yes it has been done before and diff ppl have diff views on it, some say it helped and others have said they dident see and diff in plant growth...

yes it works, it produces a lot of CO2. I did all the maths once, if anyone is interested then I shall go look it up.

one thing to be aware of is at ideal growing temps, the beer fill ferment in about 5 days and need replacing soon, so for one mj harvest, you're gonna end up with a lot of beer (would that be a pro or a con?).

Best trick I was told again and again when once looking into it, was to get everything else in the grow right first, and then look at CO2

the room is 75f to 80f and the beer has been finishing a little late. it takes about 7days. this is the 4th batch of beer so about a month i have had it going.

 

 

 

the f#cked up thing is I still run out of beer before the net batch is done.

then put in another batch. I doubt one brew is giving you much CO2, better get a 2nd one going :-)

Man I gotta set up a room like that!

I dont think I can fit another in the flower room it is kind of small and almost full soon to be full. I should just get some dry ice or spend some bank on a tank system. I will put one in the veg room I just need to get more supplys.

Why don't you have the beer outside the growspace and pipe the CO2 in from the top of the air trap?

 

Just an idea.

yeast and sugar

in a soft drink bottle

works fine

I could pipe it in I think I have some leftover 6" vent tube and a spare blower. I will play with that tonight
