tumble dryer for c02??

now i know im a noob to all this but have been doing my research so no kick in the teeth please. let me explain tumble dryers produce loads of co2 and humidity from the exhaust both things plants love yeah?? so if i vent my tumble dryer hose through my grow room and back out to the outside of my home. so now you have got roughly a couple of feet of hose from the dryer in your room if you perferate the pipe you have in your room surely it will release some of that valuble c02 and humidty into your room?? obviously the exhaust will be warm air so if having trouble with heat maybe not a good idea but come on is this a ood idea for free c02????

come on you pros let me know what your thinking

am also i noob to the grow, but my grow tent is in the same room and just a couple of foot away from my tumble dryer and gets used many times a day. and have had no problems so far, 6weeks into flower and lookin nearly ready

thats good to know my friend but are the plants benefiting from this have you got any comparisons to go on ?? surely free c02 is a must have for every grower right ?

the humidity might help you out in the seedling stage when the plants are in full bud you might be asking for problems such as bud rot mould etc
having it in the same room and actually venting into your tent are 2 diff things

obviously i dont run the tumble dryer all the time.and im saying venting through and back out with my exhaust and just perferating the length thats within my grow room should help with plant growth right??? my extraction system will kick in harder if it gets too humid so im good right? im sure theres peeps out there that have tried this so come on peeps give me some more feed back..

I think you could create more O2 just by using a fan.

think your slightly out there i take it you have got this info off the net when they talk about tumble dryers and co2 they refer to the power used to operate which inturn produces a carbon footprint this is the co2 not the dryer its self co2 is made by burning gas or coal etc etc

so andyman are you telling me that no c02 is produced when drying clothes??? i briefly looked it up on the net but it was and idea i had spinning around in my head how could i introduce c02 without buying a bucket or being sat in my grow room talking to the plants ? i think you should do some research all tumble dryers produce c02 as a buy product weather gas or electric i wasnt on about the carbon footprint.

sorry !!!!!dont belive all you read ive been a white goods engineer for 15 years
tumble dryer is a motor drum heater (small elec wire that heats up)fan the only thing to exhaust the dryer is hot air and water(along with dust skin and the like)

no im sorry, i obviously got the wrong end of the stick whilst reading dude, i am new to this and thought with the heat and oxygen being present as well as the steam i thought you would get c02 as a buy product aswell thanks for the info... i will research it properly and maybe do more research before i open my mouth about the other ideas i got going round in my head lol

An electric dryer certainly wouldn't create any co2 (maybe at the power plant), but a gas dryer will. I don't know about modern dryers, but old ones have a nozzle that blasts a flame into a vent that leads into the tumbler and then out the other side to the exhaust. I've had to replace the solenoid and igniter elements in dryers before. I can't say how much co2 is produced though. If you had the approximate rate that the dryer burns the fuel, you could find the chemical equation for combustion and ballpark it.

this sounds like a good idea except that my wife uses dryer sheets. wouldn't that give the bud a nasty taste?

it seems i might have been wrong about the c02 unless you have a gas dryer!! but if your struggling with too little humidity this could deffo help i exhausted the dryer into my room earlier and brought my humidity up over 20% but if you have poor ventilation in your room prob best not to try it because the humidity could reach as much as 100% not good from what i have read.
