Can anyone tell me if adding co2 to the grow room would also provide the o2 the roots need ?

 

[tyler_ hobbyist]

Co2 and o2 are different compounds so to ur question, NO co2 will not increase root oxygen. But that being said if ur enviromental factors are up 2 par then adding co2 is extreamly helpful.

I grow in soil with a 50/50 soil to perlite makeing my soil very airy and co2 doesnt effect my roots just possitive effects when the leaves breath in the co2, by the way the stamhata (leaf cells that breath co2) only open with blue light so even in flower make sure u have some blue in ur spectrum

I am trying a partial defole outdoors. last 2 weeks I remove large inner leaves for more light on interior buds. Seems like it is a close trade off. Food or light.

Interesting stuff. Something to think about and look into further.
