So I had to try it… I had the lines ran for a tank and regulator and figured another bucket lid is $2.
I’ve checked it numerous times with two different meters and it’s right. 5 liters of water, 5 cups of sugar and 3 packs of yeast at 93°, Air stone and an exit tube. Took 30 minutes and $15. 4 hours later and I’ve doubled the ppm in my 4×4 when it’s sealed at the bottom and venting minimally from a top port. Kinda wondering if it’s worth the tank, regulator, controller and filling. Anyone else have good results from this method?

Wow that’s pretty cool and inexpensive. Any idea how long it will last? I use traditional CO2 and it does get pretty expensive… please let the DGC know when you find out. I’m definitely curious

I run CO2 in one tent, metering seems to work better, i have the AC Infinity CO2 controller and its a little slow in picking up the level change. 2 weeks, 20 lb. 1200ppm. The method i went back to is using the cycle function on the pro69, advanced , run 4 minutes, off 20 minutes, 900 ppm and 6 weeks, flow meter is set at 1/2 a c3. ACI has one, have to get the plug controller. So all that, i vent into the lung room so the entire 10×10 is charged. In the winter we dont run outside venting, outdoors. All this is to say gas cylinders is a better way to go. Depending on goals. With normal venting one doesn’t need CO2, with decreased venting, very important, especially with all the micro climates of tents. Or 3-4 tents all sucking up CO2.
ive dropped the level to 280ppm without CO2. Got to have monitoring or its a waste. My goal is 900 ppm during flowering lights out.

@moistcube staying way higher this morning than I anticipated. Still gonna hook up the tank today, but I’ll move this to my 3×3 veg tent for sure!
