Bringing fresh air in for a co2 is actually a bad thing sort of. With co2 the room has to be sealed and levels have to saty around 15000 ppm while lights are on. You can do timed air exchanges but only like 3 in a 12 hours lights on period. I use timed fans and dampers that open and close when the fans are on or off. You want the area to keep the co2 in at all times and if you you do something like keep bringing fresh air in the whole time your wasting co2 and not benefiting as you should. You can do like I said 3-4 room clears then make sure those happen right before a new co2 fill of the room and your good.

wat about outdoor plnts ? they have fresh air and "passing" co2 i assumed that cool air with natural co2 levels constantly passing through wud mimick the ideal situ, and must surely be better than no co2 at all? am i wri
ong ?

Out doors plants never get that constant co2 level of 1500 ppm which is where the real benefits come from when using a co2 injection setup or burner. Outside the plants get a low level of co2 that they use but you dont get the benefit as the indoor contained co2 levels that are talked about for indoor growing....Heres a picture of the LED T8 bulbs I was talking about....

well they come in blue or red or mixed spectrum. They come in all sizes they are the same as t8 shop light bulbe the cheap shop light run these and those come in like 2 ft, 4 ft,6ft 8ft,10,ft and 12 ft lengths.These are for the 4 footers 24 watts each for the 4 footers and not exspensive at all if you have wholesale license and buy bulk. I ordered my sample order so will see how they work will take a bit as they come from overseas to the US price for me buying bulk before shipping anbd import tariffs is about $4 each for the 4 footers

Wouldn't 1000w of any type bulb be the same temp? Light is electromagnetic radiation... 1kw should = be the same temp no matter what right?

Sweet dude, keep us posted. I just amped my lighting up as my Low Ryders are starting to flower. I now have 400w 6700k and 640w 2700k (actual); and every drop of light that plants can use (unlike those silly other lights, whose name I wont mention ;-) ). Can wait to see how much I get out the harvest.
