So co2 is really worth it? I was thinking of laying off but it might be better just to go with it from the start... What are the golden rules for co2? Don't do it when the lights are off, and don't vent when you do it so the plants can absorb as much as possible? Is it dangerous? Couldn't I just pour some hot water on dry ice every couple of days? I just don't know how I feel about a tank of co2 no matter how it was regulated.

Also, everyone talks about having guns around. Are you guys all American? A friend was thinking of getting a 9mm but they are heavily restricted in Canada. I'd rather not involve serious weapons but he also doesn't want to be under-prepared...

By the way, good shit SG15!

Hell yeah its worth it, if you have everything else in line. It can be dangerous at like 5,000ppm and possibly fatal at 50,000 ppm but that is much higher than the 1500 we all aim for. The only way tanks could be potentially dangerous is if you have a leak from the regulator. They recommend a new washer with each tank, and to spray with soapy water solution to check for leaks. Follow those procedures and barring any physical damage to the cylinder, I think your pretty covered.

Personally not firearmed, just try to keep it on the D/L as much as possible.

Another cool greenhouse tip told to me by friends .... One of the many advantages of using co2...

If you use co2 tanks and you have any tpe of pest problem simply make sure your room is sealed at the moment. Ie no ventilation while doing this. And open the co2 tank valve wide open for about 20 seconds. Hold your breath!!! Leave the room and shut the door quickly. Now leave any vents closed and let it stay super co2 saturated in the room for about 30 mins. After that open the door up and let it air out thoroughly all the pests should now be dead on the floor. Poisened by co2. Should take care of any pest issues. Might have to do it again later to catch larvae/eggs. Doesnt cost but maybe half a bottle of co2!! Hope it helps...

blue dream is a tasty strain although I've never grown it. U won't be disappointed with them if u do give em a try, trust me.
nice grow mate...plus reps
thanks for the compliments


I am currently drawing up some plans to squeeze another 600w in my closet. I am going to have to downgrade to dual Yield Master II Supremes to make it fit, but it's doable. Then I'll have the 1kw super blue in one and the 600 horti in the other. 600W+600W hps + 400w MH should be tits! I am a little over 3 weeks flowering, so hopefully I'm not too late for this round to improve. I will be buying the supplies and making the changes tomorrow if all goes to plan. Excited to dust this 600w ballast off, been sitting cold almost 6 months!

I just discovered my bathroom plug is on its own 20 amp gfi circuit SCORE! Now I can put the 1kw on that and run the 600, my mother tent and all my other stuff on my bedroom circuit that's a 15 amp.

Things are going sweet. Love the CO2, should have done it sooner only 300 with a timer and guesstimatation but seems to be helping a lot.

I have been averaging 19 ounces or so from 1000 watts with a 8 week flower. I find that the plant count has less to do with yield, it's more the wattage you run. I do top my clones once, and if I were doing seed I would probably top them twice.

The jugs are just filled with tap water to help take up space in the tray. Since I only have 9 pots there was a lot of nutrient required to flood the table, this fixes that.

I'll be able to tell more in flower, and the smell is a dead giveaway a couple weeks after 12/12. But pe is great I'm sure you'll find it a keeper.

As planned I was able to get my 600w hps ballast out and fired back up. Rocking 2 Yield Master II Supreme's, one with the 600w the other with the 1kw superblue. Looks really great in the room, much more light across my screen. These run a little hotter so I have them all the way up and the girls seem to be liking them so far. Room hasn't broke 86 and with CO2 I think that's right where I want to be. So with all the additions, I'm hoping to hit a solid 2lbs, maybe more if I get it dialed in better down the road. Can't wait, pics later when I'm less lazy. :bigjoint:

I cant wait until I build a bigger flower box..... and have to run my old 400w ballast with mh or hps bulb,....... along side my current 600w hps flower lamp.... until I can afford some new LED panel(s).......
