Is CO2 usually needed in a small 3 x 3 tent?

Providing its well vented, intake and exhausted?

Some of you experienced indoor grow ppl definitely know. All I know is most ppl check readings of Co2, but most use bigger grow areas too.

3-4 plants.

It's a waste to run Co2 on a tent, you want a sealed room or too much escapes.

thx, Mac.

Good ventilation in a small tent is better then trying to use CO2 IMO. The fresh air exchange will provide plenty of Co2 and O2 for the plants in that size space, they need both.

Kinda figured just 3 or 4 plants wouldn't give off heaps of co2. And I know I'll be in the tent a LOT.......gotta train'em right.

Plants take in o2 and give off Co2, you can use an inline booster fan to pull fresh air in, or probably get away with a passive intake for your space.

You got that backwards mate. Plants transpire O2 and suck up CO2 when the sun or lights are on.
The reason for fresh air is because it is rich with CO2.
