burning pine in tent = good co2?

Hi guys,

I brought pieces of a pine tree into my tent and using a firelighter lit the pieces inside the growtent,
a beautiful smelling pine and lovely grey smoke lasted for about 20 minutes

Would this be good or bad, would the co2 increase?
co2 increases yields by 30%+

"People have known for a long time that there's something (in smoke) that induces seed germination ... but it's only in the last five years or so that anybody has been able to isolate a compound that works," said study editor Winslow Briggs, a biochemist at the Carnegie Institution for Science at Stanford University.

In 2004, researchers established that chemicals known as butanolides -- now named "karrikins" after karrik, the local Aboriginal word for smoke -- were inducing fire-responsive plants to germinate in the wake of a fire.

In the latest study, researchers identified precisely what the chemicals do to Arabidopsis thaliana, a common North American weed whose 30,000 genes have been mapped. The scientists found that exposing the plants to karrikins, derived from burning plant cell walls, activated a handful of genes associated with light sensitivity.

It’s almost hard to imagine anything in smoke would be bioavailable

Edit: the THC in the weed smoke seems t work though so fuck what do I know

That’s awesome but I was thinking what if u soaked a couple wood chips or a lot. Get a nice hot piece of coal or hot assssss rock and put it in wet chips in a safe container. You should get a good amount out of that

Uhhh.. i highly doubt you're doing anything positive for that plant. To even be 1% effective, you'd need to seal off your tent, keep a constant slow burn underneath or right at canopy level. The amount of smoke that would be created would basically shut out the plants ability to absorb light because there wouldn't be any left lol. You'd probably spend about the same amount of $ to figure out how to make this work than just getting a co2 gen. GL.
Subbing for the outcome..

What about clouds in the usa or the rise and fall of the suns strength and spectrum compared to lights

i find lots of fun to experiment burning lime pine
