i use bottled co2 in a 4x8 tent. its a 20 pound bottle on a cap ppm regulator/meter im growing autos right now so i got the lights on 20/4 and the co2 has been running 15mins on and 15mins off the whole time. my problem is i need to extend how long my co2 last so im not constanly gettin refills. i live in a dense neighborhood so i dont want to be seen carrying a bottle in and out. its a pain in the ass to carry that thing wrapped in a blanket and im sure it might look a lil suspisios. so my question is when is the best times to run co2 and when will be the best times to shut it off for conservation? btw im in a sealed room but i can open the door if needed for the times the co2 needs to be shut off. i have been keeping my temps around 80-90max with the co2. will i have to drop the temps for when the co2 is off? when lights are out my temps get down to like 73-78f. my meter is not adjustable either its the cap version that automaticaly keeps the ppm level at 1500. it says it can be calibrated but it has no way to set the actual level of the co2 it just has 3 lights that lets u know about where ur co2 levels r 0-900, 900-1490, 1500plus
