Your stating that the plant uses very little energy that simply can't be true. The energy that the plant uses is converted from light into growth. If we provide 10,000w and only 1% was actually used by the plants we would be better off growing outside in a greenhouse in cold climates. I...

So what about conservation of energy - energy that is stored in the plant? Or are you telling me that in the wild when cows and horses DEPEND On grass (energy) to live it's made out of thin air?

I have considered using a pump to pump the water up but that's why I started this debate. If I have the option pump water up or duct co2 up... I'd prefer to duct the co2 As it's easier and won't cause heat issues

The part you mention about 10kw light = 10kw of heat I don't agree with though. Basic physics the law of conservation of energy. Energy cannot be created or destroyed only transferred. 10,000w of light 50% may be automatically created during production of light so you have 5000w of actual...

I think a lot of information I've provided has been overlooked. I plan on using a co2 controller which turns on a water pump from my pond when co2 levels get below a certain level. This will cause the burner to turn on heat the water and then turn off when required. It is a propane burner not...

The burner is also designed for inside or outside use so it's perfectly safe to use indoors I am just thinking it may be possible to use outside to make life easier

The room is air sealed with plenty of air circulation within the room to stop co2 settling downwards so leaking downstairs isn't a problem. All co2 burners are made the same. Burners that are sold for grow ops just get a fancy label and a boost in price to make them profit. The only time a...

My 24000 btu AC may be able to handle the extra heat from a burner I'm not sure - but even if it could I don't really like the idea of trying to carry 50kg propane tanks up my stairs every time it needs replacing. I use 10000w of cobs at about 55% efficiency so they produce nearly 4500W of heat...

I have custom built cobs 100w per square foot. I recently sealed the room. So I do need co2 I'm just trying to think of best way to do the co2. I was trying to see if people on here could give there opinion on wether the drainage pipe going from the propane burner to the indoor room from...

I already do all that. The co2 wouldn't be a little it would take my ppm to 1500 easily. It would be perfectly safe only issue I face is detection.

unfortunately I live in a state which isn't legal so I have to be very careful when growing my meds I want to use co2 but the amount of heat I won't be able to deal with and bottled co2 isn't an option due to size of room. I'm thinking of using a propane hot water heater mounted outside. I can...
