GWE on CO2

With the c02 and regulater u could turn up the light or add more lights raising temps,the result faster growing. 2$ Let me add it’s not a cheap set up when I looked into it.

Good morning Wolf I make my own C02 generators I use a Gallon jug fill about half way add 2 cups sugar then about 2 table spoons of yeast ,the high c02 in my room was 1257ppm witch is where you want it they lasted about a week and I had to refill them. oh ya I drilled a small hole in the sides to put in 1/4 inch tubing and ran that to the tops of my plants, I go down everyday and give them a shake and when they stop making bubbles I remake them

[Potted]

That’s a new one on me grunt, I like what your selling,what type of yeast are u using???

[Wolf66]

That's sound very interesting is there certain yeast that you use

[Madman960]

Any yeast will work. When yeast eats sugar it gives of CO2 which makes breads and such rise or you can use it to carbonate Homebrew beer or wine.

Happy growing.

I understand the process but their are diff types of yeast wet and dry? Don’t exactly know which to use? Sorry to b a pain,trying to get it right.

[Madman960]

You could use either. But wet costs more so I would use dry. OJH is likely using dry as he says 2 tablespoons to 2 cups sugar.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,and have a happy turkey day!

[Madman960]

Welcome. Same to you!!

[oldjarhead100]

Thanks Madman, yes I use active dry yeast ,I originally bought the packets then when I had to recharge them I bought the little jars they equaled 16 packets (walmart) . I may have to modify my room to do wine in it for the c02 lol

Just wondering how effective that would b in a grow room with ventilation??? And sirculateing fans?

[oldjarhead100]

I'm not sure but my room went from a high of 627 to 1257 over two days unfortunately I cant reset high low so I dont know what the day to day is, I run an exhaust fan while lights are on ,circulating fans all the time and a fresh air supply and it still went that high,when grow is done I will post pictures
