Whatever dude you obviously didnt read the article...the information is compiled from journals that are credible ... ARE YOU IN NEW YORK OR NOT/
Yes i read the article and did u read mine. Amazingly people think differently who would have thought. Am i in NyC no am I close enough yes am I gonna say where I live NO.

Haha, I appreciate the lively conversation. I think the art of growing is just that, an art with man variables and outcomes.. I'm shooting at 1000 to 1100 ppm CO2 while lights are running. With that as a constant (Haha not the point) would keeping the same air in the system and not exhausting outside, be a bad idea? Thanks again
Haha sorry dude for jacking ur post it wasn't my intention at all . I would suggest and again this is my opinion exhausting air through a carbon filter which helps with the smell a lot .

I have been doing this for years now and in the beginning I was always using co2 in the room but after researching and talking to other growers I realized the most optimal way to get the most CO 2 is to bring in fresh air from the outside and dumping it into your room. Obviously everything grows quite healthy outside so what would be better. I have been using outside air to cool the room and dump co2 into the room and have watched my results skyrocket with both quality and quantity . I use to 6 inch max fans blowing into the room and lights it works two fold. It cools the room and also provides optimal CO2 and does not cost u a thing. So if u can I would tell u to bring in air from outside
I did read your very first post which is a lie... the optimal way to get the most co2 is from outside? You said yourself, lets pretend you get 800ppm from outside...then this is not optimal because studies show plants can take in 1500ppm with optimal results...ok case closed

Your plants would do even better if they had 700ppm more...not that we can tell how good with those long distance shots you posted....lets see macro
