I built my own CO2 generator.
I used a 7 gallon water jug, 5/8 clear hosing, brass plumbing parts, and silicone. It took me about 10 minutes to make.
My recipe for 7 gallons is:
First boil 7 gallons of water
Then pour in 28 cups of sugar
Stir until completely disolved
Then put water in large bucket until water is room temp.
Then pour water into 7 gallon container and fill about 1 inch from rim
Add 7 teaspoons of yeast
Put cap on
Shake vigorously for a few minutes
Afterwards I let it sit out with the clear tube sticking in a tub of water until I get a bubble every 1-2 seconds. This usually takes 24-48 hours.
My 7 gallon CO2 setup lasts about 30-45 days
I check it once a week by taking the tube and sticking in a tub of water to see how long it takes to make a bubble.
I've been doing this for awhile, it's worked very well with the small grow space that I'm doing it in, which is about 80 cubic feet.
I'm gonna try and put up some thumbnails so you can see what it looks like.
