In theory would pure o2

[RonnieB2]

Ive always wondered if pure o2 would make a big difference in a bubble system. I know its not practical, just curious

 

[Rakin]

Yeah, it would blow up.

 

[RonnieB2]

Literally blow up because o2 is flammable or blow up with growth lol

With growth? Lol

 

[Rakin]

literally blow up

When it hits plants? WTF he talking about?

Dude pure O2 is explosive

Ive wondered more about nitrogen gas to the root zone

I know guys who pump co2 to their grows and their yields are up 20-30% .

Yeah but that's not for the roots, the air is like 79% nitrogen gas

 

[Rakin]

But nitrogen gas isn't safe either so.

You can actually buy co2 bags for your grows. they naturally release co2 for 6 months. One bag is said to be good for 1 or 2 plants. You just hang it above them. co2 is heavier than air so itll fall basically as it leaves the bags

Maybe....to up your DO game.

Connect an airstone to grannys home oxygen cannula line.

Then toss the airstone into the DWC.

.....disclaimer...
Just being a joker. Please dont try this at grannys.

 

[RonnieB2]

Hahaha!!!!!

Hahaha!!!!!

Glad you have a sense of humor!! Ty



Here's a great read for any grower.

Lasts far less time than 6 months and is more about the size space it's in and if it's sealed or not more than just plant count.

Not nearly as much as you think it is. It can be flammable certainly, but not something so dangerous, any open flame will set it off. It wouldn't be hand delivered to residential homes every day.

I know guys who pump co2 to their grows and their yields are up 20-30% .

Co2 can be a huge benefit in a sealed environment and used in short spread out bursts. But once it's depleted, room needs to be exhausted and then refilled again with it. Can be pretty costly. But the valve and a timer makes the dispensing part easy enough.

Its out of my price range. Im happy to be doing my 1st coco/perlite grow lol.

Upgraded from what? Outdoor?

 

[RonnieB2]

Yes. its still illegal here and im too old to play cat and mouse with thieves and cops looking for grows. I just started my 1st indoor setup. ive been gardening for 30 plus years and must admit. Im blown away at how far technology has come for growing. Especially the bright minds coming up with great new ideas. Im doing 1 full coco/perlite smart container and one with fox farm ocean soil mixed with coco and perlite. Im gonna compare the two. I know ill have to feed the pure coco more but think itll be worth it. Started out with 2 autofems. Gorilla glue and zkittlez. Nothing too fancy with 600watts (equivalent) led over both plants. Will probably top and lst to try to keep canopy flat as possible and even.

Will be using Humboldt sweet sticky, golden tree, and advanced nutrients grow micro bloom, with their cal-mag and ph up ph down to test my water. I have clean, really clean well water but learned from past experiences healthy plants that are consuming lots of nutrition can screw with your ph
