Just finished setting up my CGE grow room and have question about the co2 set up the room is fully sealed no intake or exhaust and I'm running my co2 regulator on a cycle timer I know how long to leave it on so that the room fills but how often should I have it turn on if any of you are running a CGE set up it would be great if uu guys could help me out thanks

You need to get a co2 monitor that tells you the ppm of the air inside your tent. You can get one that will turn on and off your co2 tank when the ppm is above or below your desired average. Good Luck.

Download the cap reg 1 manual it has a good guide to help you set this up. Ideally you want a ppm controller but until your there a good calculation will work.

It's not jailing your girls, it's like Kobe beef! Give them the best environment to produce the highest quality product.

yes you need a monitor/controller . you can get a nice one on ebay for under 3 bills check out digigro.com they sell on ebay. i bought one from these guys and they're top notch they went way out of there way to help me get my room setup correctly which is very important. I got a telaire model which is what CAP sell with there name on it for 279 and free ship. If your doing it do it right and it will pay for its self in 8 weeks

You have to get a co2 controller because there is no way of determining how fast your plants will absorb the co2.

Yes the controller is the best way to not waste CO2 which translate to saving money for you....... But you can just mutipli Legthxwidthxheight to get you cubic volume then find out how many cubic feet of gas your regulator is going to release in a set amount of time and you can guesstimate the entervulls to put your timer on to release the Co2....Other then that your only other choice is to get a Co2 censor and that must be connected to a controller and the controller is connected to your Silenode/regulater....

Check out my homemade Computer Prosseccor Control panel...... there is no timers on my grow it runs off a prossecor like your desk top... Everything is controlled from this one panal....Co2,heater, AC, fans, lights, dehumidfier, its all controlled from inside the house from laptop.....I set the setting from inside on the computer that is sent to panel in the grow room and then it does everything for me based of how the software was writtin......

My dads an enginer so we made it with spare parts from his work and a demo software he jacked......
