...one other point. I do not have "tubing is specially made for drip irrigation" I have regular line which I have put holes in every 8-10". I suspect this will be fine. Thoughts?

Hmmm drip irrigation tubing.I have some but its not that small and does have holes in it but has spots marked every so often.I see most setup with blue or yellow plastic tubing just a long staright run with the end having a hose clamp or plug anybody seen good place online to get the hose..Might be time to go view the hydro shop in person here

A line over each row would be optimal, and don't forget to keep the air moving up off the floor (CO2 is heavy) and around your room.

Good info in this thread..

I lack the Co2 equipment, but a bonging buddy says you can just get a Co2 cartridge, like for air guns, and pop them open into the dirt?

:confused:

Anyone ever use this poor man's method? Looks like the route I'll take for now once my lil' babies get bigger

one thing i need to say, if you add co2 for 10 minutes then turn the fan back on and suck it out you are waisting gas. you need a static room to keep the levels correct. i use a 15 on 15 off. the benifits of co2 outweigh fresh air. but when you bring ppm to 1500 why ten minutes later would you take your room back too 300.

the point of the formula is to figure out what you are losing and what your plants are using and replacce that at the correct ratio.
