Yo noob.

For co2, maybe look into exhale bags, or something similar? Pretty cheap, about £25. Its effectively a bag of activated compost that you hang above your lights. The compost grows mycelium (like magic mushrooms, haha), and the mycelium shits co2 out into your tent. Since co2 is heavier than air, it rains co2 all over your plants. Apparently produce really well. I'm still in the process of looking into them, I obsess about nerding out over things before I buy. As tipper knows, I'm a tight fuck, so want to get my moneys worth!

If you're running LED, I'd imagine temps are lower than my tent. Yeast works best (for baking anyway) between 27C-32C, that's when it'll give the best rise/produce most co2. People on here don't recommend any form of standing water in your grow space though...

Is that just desk lamps as supplementary lighting? What bulbs are you using?

Ha. I'm thinking about making a diy cfl rig for early in the ladies lives. Was just staring at a broken bathroom lamp fitting yesterday, thinking of using that but it only holds two bulbs. I could make a rig for a few quid.
