When Should I Consider More CO2?
Northostarted grow question 3 years ago
I flower my plants in a mylar lined box, roughly 2' deep by 4' wide by maybe 6' tall, using two 300W Mars Hydro LEDs.
With that amount of light on the plants, would you recommend more light, or CO2 supplementation, and if so how much?

Hey there northo, basically cannabis works better with more co2, whereas you’re at 500-550ppm canna works better at like 800-1200 ppm . So if your goal is “optimal growing conditions” then you can go ahead with co2 supplementation. I liked using the TNB co2 product more than others . You’re right to mention the light though , it’s probably a more logical investment at first. I see you’re using blurple. What I ask folks is always “what color is the sun?” Try the newest generation of lights : they’re the right color now. A good light will do more for you than extra co2 for sure. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Flip to flower delayed because of extension cord led light. Just a delay or problems ahead?After 1,5 weeks of 12/12h, I started to worry why the plant was not showing any signs of flowering and I decided to get in to the tent to check for any light leaks. YES: Extension cord's led was shining in the darkness.
Is this just a delay or am I going to face problems?a year ago

Fabric grow pot drainageHow do you get proper drainage? Using them in this grow with coco/perlite and another with soil, and unless I raise them on a rack the bottom stays wet because they sit in the runoff pan. A proper pot has a raised bottom with holes below. Maybe buy a few dish drying racks? Ideas?a year ago

Set auto system for VPD or RHI have AC Infinity set up. I am wondering whether I should have the humidity triggers set up for VPD or continue with RH triggers. So far I have it triggered when humidity gets a tad low. If I trigger for VPD, I think I will have to constantly check leaf temp. Thoughts?
