Use of candle for co2

My plants are in their 4th week of flowering...looking good. Problem is I dont have the money to get a proper way to inject co2 into grow room. Was wondering..I have 6 plants....does it do any good to burn a small tea candle in the room? Room is at constant 80 (70 at night) and room gets limited outside ventilation.
Also...am growing hindu kush...any insights anyone has on this strain is MUCH appreciated..my 3rd and best grow so far. Thanks guys and gals...I couldnt have done it without you!!!!

a burning candle creates no co2, so not sure what you were expecting candle to do. maybe a romantic mood will make them grow more????

LOL that's funny.

I think the reasoning would be that the candle would use up the oxygen thus leaving carbon dioxide behind.

Candle = fire hazard

I think you should come up with a better plan. My plants seem just fine breathing the air in the room.

plants only need CO2 when they are "lacking" CO2. IMO. good ventilation should be all you need. unless your running a couple 1000 watters. then i think it may help. for smaller grows though i think it's better to focus on more important things. a lot of people seem to think by simply blasting a little CO2 your gonna get 2 pound nuggies. it just doesn't work that way. no magic bullets, sorry.

theres ample Co2 for plant growth in the air we breath already, just keep good extraction of stale warm Co2 depleted air and intake of fresh air rich in Co2 and youl be fine
