Dry Ice = Solid CO2

Sublimes from Solid --> Gaseous CO2 when dunked in water

Anyone every tried or ever heard of someone trying this? I feel like it would be a great way to do it if you have a store for dry ice nearby (like me )

Yeah. I recently saw a thread where a guy used it for a little bit, but ended up switching to the tank because doing it with dry ice was too expensive.

shit i dont remember, because throughout the thread (which was posted all at once - the whole grow) his room expanded a couple times. I'd have to search for it. I think the main strain he had was Mazari (Started with an M and was short) and he ended up with like 200-300 clones in party cups. Sorry thats not very specific. I think the dry ice may have been used for a room that looked like it could have been 8'x4'ish?

But just think about how often youd have to buy dry ice you know? I mean, water is gonna melt it faster than if it were just sitting in air.
