I put in my ac the other day, finally decided to set it up this morning, along with 50 lb co2 tank, they look great, in just 12 hours, I've never seen my girls happier...

I walked into the room just a bit ago and while looking at them, I noticed the air was super thin, heat hasn't rised at all though. My face felt hot a minute later so I left.

Now, I've done all the calculations, I have a 10x10x8.5 room, to sustain a 1200ppm, I'm dispose to add one cubic foot an hour, therefore a 50lb tank lasts a month...

Right?

But my concern I guess is build up, my room is fairly sealed, but if I'm realeasing 1 cubic foot an hour, what if they're not using it, wouldn't it build up into a lethal level?

Just curious here, I need to buy a meter, put my mind at ease...

Thanks guys!

I wouldnt risk it. Shelf the co2 for now and just circulate some fresh air until yu can get a control to safely regulate and monitor co2 levels.
I don kno how experienced yu are, but, i can say from personal experience that yur better off dialing in yur grow before adding co2. How will yu noe if its benefitting yur plants without a control variable?

Kush killing tons right, although personally you should get a co2 generator like a yeast cultivation or butane co2 burner/generator reducing danger
