Even cheaper option is to mix up some sugar/yeast/water. 3 cups of sugar/2 tbsp of dried activates yeast, then fill halfway with water. Lasts 2-3 weeks, I shake mine up every day.

Also a quick suggestion, wouldn’t having the co2 source near the bottom be better? Yours is right beside the exhaust, would think it would be more effective on the floor/under the canopy.

By the way, I don’t mean this as criticism. Your setup blows mine out of the water!

Sorry if it wasn't clear, that is what I meant by 1 gallon fermenter. But thankyou for making the clairification. 2tbs seems like a lot specially for that volume, 2 tsp maybe? A packet of bakers yeast will work and there is maybe a gram or 2 in those. You can get yeast nutrient from the brew store if you want to continually propogate the culture.

And having good cirulation will mean there is effective mixing of the air and the density of co2 shouldn't be much of an issue.

Personally feel both the bags and fermenters are only useful for people at risk of co2 deficiency not for hitting vpd hard.

Yeah, just figured for the 3 bucks or so it will cost me per grow, it’s probabky worth it. And it helps with the smell too!

Good to know! I have a heater at the bottom of my tent, right near the container of yeast/sugar/water, and a small fan pointed at them, tilted slightly upwards. Along with another fan to circulate, a small oscillating fan, and the exhaust at the top, it should be pulling the co2 towards the top. My intake vents are at the bottom as well, with carbon filters on them.

Nice! Yep I use a fan to distribute the generated co2 across the top of my canopy. Have you got the carbon filter on the intake fan or exhaust fan?

Exhaust fan, I just use passive air intake

Hi all again guys..

I didnt update for a while cause there was no availble camera but now i found the solution..

So.. we are at day 41.. 21days(3weeks) exactly from the main leaf strip and from the previous update!
Everything is still perfect, environment, feeding schedule, light sources, everything!..

Here we have 2 OG Kush phenotypes..the 2 plants in front are 80cm and more bushy(1st pheno) and the other 2 plants from behind are 1m height with more thickness(2nd pheno).!
The 2nd is definitely the best!

During this period and after the main leaf strip, i took a maximum of 10 leaves/plant/week..!Just to inform how i exactly work with defoliation after the main leaf strip!

Just remember they have 3 more weeks to continue getting as fucking BIG and HARD as possible!!
Today i just started giving it 2ml/lt Overdrive by Advanced Nutrients!

Also after these photos i have a quick comparison between day 20 and day 41(3 weeks later)!

Enjoy the progress of my job and i am open to discussions!

Cheers everybody!





And the comparison Day 20 vs Day 41!!

Wow! Going to be some thick dense colas all the way down brother!! Im definitely doing a heavy defol 4sure! Looks real good. Nice work connoisseur!!

Thanks brother for your kind words! Its definitely the best method for fast veg cycle..4weeks veg, 9 weeks flowering! Exactly 3 months...!..Definitely i ll work like this in every crop..the only thing i would change is that i would put 9 plants in 10 lt pots..now i have 4 plants in 20 ltr pots, and i vegged 30-32 days(i dont remember)..with 9 plants in 10 ltr pots, 28 days veg is perfect veg time to totally fill the canopy with huge defoliated FEMINIZED(ofc ) buds

Looking good mate...
