For those of you using CO2 on a controller… where are ya placing your sensors?
I have mine near the canopy on the wall at about canopy height, not sure if this is best or not.

middle of the room, above the canopy, at least a few feet away from the burner/tank

doesnt matter too much as long as its not under the canopy. mine is stationary. early cycle, its a few feet above the canopy. by the time theyre done stretching, its usually right on top, sometimes 8-12" above

Super, I’ll run with that. I have good air movement in the room to faaaairly confident the overall room CO2 levels are pretty consistent everywhere

thats the key. co2 is heavy. if you dont have this already, get something pulling air from the floor and sending it upward
