Good luck getting out of your crib in Australia with their crazy Covid rules. I’d rather go live on the moon all by myself.

Maybe im not expressing myself clearly enough. Sure my weed gets a little compact but have you ever bought weed from the streets? Almost all of it is rock hard nugs that sounds like rocks when you drop them on the table. It’s called CO2, and you will only understand when you will have tried the same strain with and without CO2. I’m just searching something that would create the same end product without the CO2.

It was said earlier. The main 2 factors in dense buds is genetics and light.
When testing my 200watt light I grew 2 jungle cakes. I had one at 22" and one at 16" from led. Same genetics and the one closer to light had more solid buds. But yeah the only way to give plant more light and push it is Co2. But it's expensive and the Co2 bags are worthless.

CO2 only good for a dialed in grow, fully sealed room

I don't get dense nugs every run but I often do. Some seeds just deliver, some don't.

I agree- I have had different strains in a group that are nice and tight and others with a fluffier bud. Same room, temps nutes, c02. Everything. Different bud structure.
When you have the right genetics, dialing in the atmosphere is key.
I may start growing 1 strain at a time, but I like the variety.

Why do you say the c02 bags are useless?
I have 3 in my grow room and regularly see levels between 700-1100.
