Outdoor CO2 supplement?

[Someguy15]

CO2 will effect water ph as well as compete with dissolved oxygen in solution. Even in sealed grows one should take caution when storing the nutrient solution in the same space.

RTI's Xtreme Gardening line has a Co2 foliar spray. it's for indoor and outdoor crops. just apply bi-monthly. I ordered some for my grow this season. Says to increase photosynthesis three-fold. Just waiting for my seeds to arrive. I'll tell you how it goes.

Here's the link

LoL....just saw that. Not the exact product I use, but same concept.

Does it work well?

are you retarded?? there is enough CO2 outside!!! you know were all the plants live naturally? anyways theres no way you could keep it around the plants unless you used a tent or something so it wouldnt be an outside grow! why dont you think

Ed Rosenthal talks about it in his book. You gunna call him retarded?

3 yr old thread to funny. But plants outside could use all the co2 u could give them probally, but no way to do it economically. That's what greenhouses are for.

 

[Mr.Marijuana420]

co2 is very abundent outside, adding co2 is only used with indoor growers, but still not completely necessary

 

[analesbia]

you wouldnt, but what about throught the roots? will it serve the same purpose or will it damage/freeze the roots?

ROOTS REQUIRE OXYGEN. CARBON DIOXIDE WILL KILL THEM!
People use hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), use air bubbles and all to eareate (oxygenate) roots. Doing the opposite (CO2) will kill promptly roots and thus plants.
As someone wrote before, it's no longer "outdoor" grow if you enclose plants to increase CO2 levels; otherwise it will just dissipate despite CO2 being heavier than air and tending to settle at the lowest bottom.
Outdoor is different. Why would you fuck with nature?

you must be retarded. go somewhere else w/ that shit.

if it was a green house it truly wouldnt be outdoors

You replied to a 4 year old post just to call the guy a retard? Do you feel better about your self now?

 

[crispypb840]

I bash bad info when I see it. why do I care when it was posted.

I think outdoors that maybe the only way to benefit.

Theres nothing better than the sun for growing! Gotta love it, especially if you have supersoil... Anyways "Jokerjocko" is kinda right about how the plant consumes the Co2.... it consumes the co2 through the spores of the plant. But I believe it is useless to even attempt to put any Cof on your plants if it's outside/and or not in a concealed room. Cuz during the day the plant breathes carbon dioxide and during the night it breathes oxygen. If you spray Co2 in someone's face, it'll just dissipate and just go away. That's why you need to seal it up! But the benefits from growing the dank outside is without a doubt my fav way ta go fasho fasho. Boats n hoes

Spores in the leaves your right

You can do It outdoors ...I do it every year...I cover the plants like some ppl suggested and put my co2 source at the base of the plant...and why in the fuck would it not be an outdoor grow...I don't keep the bags on them...I love how ppl who have no clue wtf they are taking about and just say shit say it get on here when ppl are asking questions ....don't make somebody feel bad for asking something...that's what this place is for...and who gives a shit how old something is...it's on here for information. ..why does the age if it matter...if it gets old it's useless? ?

So many opinions yet few have actually tested the idea - ed Rosenthal speaks about it in his book and
There is a pic of a water heater which gives off co2 as a byproduct - the plsnt was large and the co2 enriched side
was larger - I'll get a pic soon

Just my two cents but in years when i have faced harsh cold stretches early i have built a temp green house and used a small cast iron wood stove to burn charcoal. This has always kept my ladies alive till it warmed but ive noticed huge gains i believe come from the carbon monoxide that rapididly oxidises into carbon dioxide. I have great airflow any buildup is impossible. Its worked for me.
