yeah, my favorite is pulsegrow.com , they're coming out with a new meter around now actually, it has CO2 on it and lots more too , but to answer your question, the plants are totally okay. the CO2 is also perfect, you can actually go higher if you want. just make sure the rest of the environment is also perfect and the leaf surface temperature is also fine. Hope this helps ! 🚀

that meter is designed for air quality ... tvoc - total volatile organic compounds ... think of the smell from the walls days after painting .. those are voc's aqi - air quality index - a human measure of how much pollution is in the air co - carbon monoxide eg car fumes co2 - carbon dioxide hcho - formaldehyde gas ... eg disinfectants, cosmetics ... so ... you can really have a grow so clean .. even epa will approve after sampling ...

Hey! Your co2 levels look fine, but I am VERY concerned by your CO levels. CO is carbon monoxide and 261 ppms is quite a bit. The levels for CO are as follows; 50 PPM None for healthy adults. According to the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), this is the maximum allowable concentration for continuous exposure for healthy adults in any eight-hour period. 200 PPM Slight headache, fatigue, dizziness, and nausea after two to three hours. 400 PPM Frontal headaches with one to two hours. Life threatening after three hours. 800 PPM Dizziness, nausea, and convulsions within 45 minutes. Unconsciousness within two hours. Death within two to three hours. 1,600 PPM Headache, dizziness and nausea within 20 minutes. Death within one hour. HCHO is Formaldehyde, I'm guessing your furnace or something is a gas furnace and it might be burning too rich/lean and is producing by products from the mercaptans in the gas. Hope this helps.
