Co2

[Sam sneak]

OK so I have a fan pushing air from outside I was using wine yeast and sugar with water in a closed room but I was wondering if a fan pushing air from outside would be enough

Depends on what your trying to do? How many plants and how big? Outside air is about 400ppm, that is fine to grow with. Typically we try and get to about 1500ppm when adding co2. But yeah, 400ppm is just fine. In a sealed room with no co2 injection or Outside air the plants will deplete the co2 pretty quick. When my burner is off my co2 gets to about 120ppm

Yes

Yeah I just think my plant that I grew in a closet with a co2 gadgets buds were alot bigger at this many weeks I just been really busy that I've kind of not made any more but not sure if wine yeast. Sugar and water ones every few weeks is going to cut it with 12 plants either and there budding already

Oh and do you think a fan pushing air from outside would actually create more co2 because of the volume of air being forced through the fan just a thought

No.

I think this is your best bet. Fermentation on a scale less than a small brewery won’t make a difference and still consume money.

(add) Indoor air typically has more co2 than outside air. Especially if more than one (including larger dogs) lives in the space.

Yes well we're I grow is my garage but it's connected to my house so I can leave door open I guess and I'll start thinking of running another pipe and fan from the door out to the shed I guess hopefully that helps and I will buy me a meter when I can to check different options but yeah thanks I like to learn new ways of doing things better

As long as you have good air exchange you don't need a co2 monitor, if you do a closed room, then yes.

This isn't necessary. You will not gain any additional benefits from doing this.

Oh really my room in my garage I've put walls up a pipe running through to that room pushing cold air in I haven't got air getting pushed out tho which is my next step as well but I kind of have to have a filter for the smell then at the moment I just don't worry about it cause its confined to my shed but pushing air out well we all know will change that
