co2 enrichment methods

[The Hash Nibbler]

I got to admit, PC was one of me favourites to grow, yield was good, great smoke, chunky buds, and made some of the best hash I ever smoked. I would say more like 10-11 weeks mate. 75 days was pretty spot on. Then she stinky.... .. don't rush her mate, i know the waitings a killer, but worth the wait =) .

 

Best of grows man, happy dayz a comin....... Peace. Nibbler.

I'm lucky I've got my first pineapple kush about to be cut in a few weeks. A friend reckons it smells like petrol, I have no clue of what it smells like. I've taken heaps of clones from all 3 of my pineapple chunks I only have 1 of them buding. About to start the other 2 when my pineapple kush is done.

just stumbled across these today, anyone really heard much about aquarium C02 setups? I take it they absorb C02 differently?

That is basically an airstone you connect to a normal CO2 tank that helps it to diffuse in the water rather than completely bubbling out.

 

If you want to encourage Cannabis growth you add the CO2 to the air so the leaves can absorb it.

I realize what I linked was like an airstone sorry,  copied the wrong link

So do they release co2 into the air or just into the water

I think if you were thinking about the need for CO2 and your are prepared to run two 600w bulbs and an AC, you may as well go to the extra expense of getting the CO2 canister with the pressure valve on it an run a certain voulmn through drip feeder nozzels (above your plants- CO2 is heavy and will sink to the bottom of your tent) onto your very pamperd lass. If They need CO2 then a 2 bit sett up with give a two bit result.

By my calc 1200W is just in the ball park for needing CO2. 800W is the optimum for a 1.2x1.2. By the time you have hit 1000W in a meter square area you need to spend a bit on CO2 to make it worthwhile; however your only just on the threshold of needing it so the expense of the gain need to be concidered with the expense of the setup. However I dont know a single grower that doesn't also grow the Grow.

If you wanted to get CO2 you may as well be thinking of setting up a larger area.

Wich beggs the question, you either smoke straight Hash 24/7 or you dont mind having a lot of left over weed.

Stay safe. iTiC

Thanks a lot itic, makes sense to get a proper system for my precious ladies

does anyone on this site run co2 at all or is that for people that have a big grow space?
