Home made CO2 system

Hi guys, newbie grower here setting up my first grow. Planning on doing a scrog. I have been reading about making bottles of CO2 with yeast/sugar. I was thinking of making a system which would consists of tubing, (which has had holes poked in it to allow the CO2 to fall on the plants), put together with t joint and elbow joint pluming fittings, being hung above the screen used for the scrog, and attaching the ends of the tubing system to the lids of bottles (by drilling holes down the cap of the bottle, inserting the tubing, and siliconing the edge to make a seal) filled with the yeast sugar mix.

I was thinking that as the CO2 builds up in the bottles, eventually it will make its way up the tubing and around the system, out of the holes i will poke in the tubing and fall onto the plants. I will change the bottles every 1 or two weeks.

My question is, will this work? I Can't see why not but have no experience. Any input from you guys would be greatly appreciated.
I Have attached some pictures, sorry about the awesome design art work!

I dnt know if it will work. I do know since its your first grow ya may want to keep it simple. Theres plenty of co2 in the air. co2 is mainly used in a closed up garden. Its easier to open a window or get a fan.
