    Co2 effusion for 4x4x8 tent.

    So I ran the numbers on co2 effusion in a 4x4x8 tent. 6g/mol Will raise co2 by about 800 ppm to right around 1500 ppm in my tent. So a relatively small rig will feed your plants co2 for synthesis. Fyi. It's around 6 and a half Gram's. Refer to Gram's Law and effusion rates for gases. Sorry this took so long but I wanted to be sure. I'm rigging a new set up

      It means a little goes a long way.

      CO2 is not anything we even worried about during our grow. What are the benefits? Or maybe a better question, how does the plant suffer if not getting enough?
      Hubs would smoke out there sometimes (tent is in the garage), but not on a regular basis.

        Bicarb. So what I'm doing is what you suggested, supersizing it. I'm constructing an air bladder and co2 rig. It will be closed loop for mega treatments. Pics this weekend.

          Increased co2 and light equals more photosynthesis higher temp tolerance and increased transpiration.

            Please be more specific...

            Bicarb?

              Okay, thanks for that explanation. Now I know its benefits.

                you are right high temps are necessary when using co2. Just to mention all the co2 "bags" ect really don't work well and a co2 system is best and as mentioned 1500 ppm is good
