Homebrew and homegrown

Hi all I've been making my own homebrew for years, and now I have incorporated using the CO2 from the homebrew for my grow room. I was wondering if there was anyone else out there doing the same thing. Right now I am doing two five gallon brews and piping the co2 into my 4'x4'x8 flowering room, the temp. in the grow room stays around 80 deg. and humidty is from 50% to 65%. I also have two fans inside a clip-on and a box fan, with a 4" exhaust fan. Does anyone have any idea if this is enough co2? I am really looking forward to talking to someone else who has been doing this.

I too have been brewing beer for a long time and was just thinking about this method of releasing the CO2 in to my grow tent. I do know there is a thread here somewhere about home made CO2 from water sugar and yeast so I'm sure putting your carboy or fermentation bucket in you grow space would benefit the ladies. Good luck bro.

You should be controlling the temps of your fermentation so if you can snake a tube from your chest freezer or your fermentation chamber into your grow tent/room, go for it. Personally I don't think it's worth the trouble.

I've only done homebrew a couple of time since I started growing, but definately - run a hose from your carboy to the grow. Don't let all that co2 goto waste!
I've got a buddy who does both - he just bought a house and he's looking to incorporate the two.
