I'm assuming you have a carbon filter in one or both rooms? If so, make sure it's not on the floor. c02 is heavier than o2 so if your filter isn't mounted more towards the ceiling of your room that's probably why you're using so much. It's getting sucked into and through your filter. I have a 50 lb tank and it's still next to full. Currently it's only feeding one room but it's set to 1750ppm. It's going on 4 weeks and it will definitely last me through my entire grow, maybe my next.

If you have the filter on the floor that would be a reason you're using so much c02. Either that or your ventilation is pushing too much air out of the room. I can't see any other reason to go through that much co2...

hey bud i am running a 9x14 x8' room at 1200ppm and it is hitting nine days per tank but we can do better. we were at fourteen but i added a bigger fan to my carbon filter in the other room and it made gaps and caused weird pressure in the room i got a fan speed controller but i still is a little too powerful need more intake in my veg room... so anyway it is becoming an balance between truely sealed and a vacuum effect that is compounded when it gets really cold at night. major sucking sound when i open the door so i added plastic and a zipper to airseal the door now i will glue a sheet of plastic to the ceiling for my next run and balance out my other aspects alittle better to maintain optimal growth... oh and i am going to add a tankless waterheater to my setup no more bottled co2 except in the veg room!

well here is an update of my flowering room. turned off the hps lights like requested. im having trouble capturing good photos with it off though. but here are some. these plants are roughly 2 weeks flowering. im noticing alot of yellowing leaves and do not know what the problem is. so today i feed them all and added a 1/3 strength nitrogen nute. can anyone help me with the deficiency or could it be salt build up?

that could be salt lock but looks more like lack of nitro fade... i add earthworm castings to organic tea to raise the nitro level a litttle bu i say check ph, ec,ppm of the RUNOFF if it does not swing wildly fire away with800 ppm i go use biobizz at 200ppm cal mag 200ppm grow 400 bloom but that is for week 3/4 and i bubble it with castings and humic/fulvic acids

What is your ph? I have been fighting deficiencies since I started out. My plants were all lacking in the N department. All along is was my soils ph that was fuct up. Got a cheap digital ph tester and things seem to be turning around. I also added worm castings to the top of my soil upon my last feed. Hopefully everything turns around for you.

well my ph is currently 6.8-7.0 i havent checked the run off, but i took most of the N out once i switched to 12/12 than they ate all the n up outta the leaves. the soil is amended with extra dolomite lime to buffer the acid peat moss base in the promix soil

A buddy of mine grew an auto and ruderalis strain with his last batch. They didn't yield a whole lot but they smoked really good. They both had me stoned off my ass lol
