I´ve been reaserching on this topic for awhile now and have come to an understanding that ppl either use ventilation to change the air x times/min in their room or they will use co2 in a concealed room without ventilation.
Both options have their pros and cons:
with co2:
-need to keep humidity lower than 70 in veg /60 in bloom to prevent mold
-growroom needs to be completely sealed
-might be hard to control temp in tent because of no vent
with ventilation and without co2:
-missing out the great benefits of adding extra co2!
So my question is would it work to combine the 2 techniques by controlling the ventilation with a timer or controller and turn it of for like the first 15 min/ every hour and pump in co2 those 15 min?
the circulation fans would ofc still be on as they will be needed to keep the co2 in the air and around the plants (because co2 is heaier that air and will drop to the floor otherwise)
so would 15 mins be enough for the plants to absorb the added co2 that I will give em?
please come in and write your own thoughts about it
sincerely, Manny
