Co2/Fan timers

lol, alright. Well I got my setup in my 3.5ft x 3.5ft x 6ft box. The box has a fan that pulls air in from the outside of the box while another blows the air out. There is also a large box fan inside the box to circulate. My Co2 runs around the ceiling of the box.

Now.. my concern is how to run the Co2 without my fans fucking it up. I mean, I don't want to just turn the shit on and watch as my ventilation system renders the Co2 useless by just blowing it out. Is there any specific timer I should get to make it all work correctly?

I want to turn my Co2 on for about 15 minutes every hour the light is on. But I also want my fans to turn off for the 15 mins the Co2 comes on so it isn't wasted.

if you're in a box, don't use co2. it'll heat up too quickly. with an exhaust fan and passive intakes you''ll do fine.

Yeah you probably don't need it.. I'm running it in my walkin and alot of people have told me I don't need it either I'm still using it thouh because well I already have everything.. For your setup though I wouldn't even worry about it.. keep the air flow in their constant in/out and keep the temps in check and you should have some good exchange.. I've had to turn the temp up on my controller to not lose co2 but in turn my exhaust fan is barely coming on so that's not helping much for my constant airflow.. I'm going to change a few things around this week myself
