ok.. i was wondering if anyone knew how much co2 the diy co2 buckets with sugar/yeast produce. It's not enough to go over 1500-2000ppm in a sealed room is it? the reason im asking is because i have a growroom going but i also produce my own moonshine. the co2 just bleeds through an air lock from my fermentation container... if i located my fermentation setup closer to the flower room i could just attach a hose to my airlock and i could effectively recycle the co2... now the thing is... i don't know if i want to do a run every 3 or 4 days lol.. i can't drink that much hooch and i would have to just start selling the surplus to cover cost... anyone do this or see any reason why it wouldnt work?

No where close to 1500-2000 ppm.

I tried it with beer, same difference as buck as far as that goes.

It's kind of a waste if you aren't going to do a run every 3 or so days and selling a bunch of surplus shine is a real quick way to get busted.:cuss:
