What I'd like to know is how long can you stand in the room when the ppm keeps rising? At what point is it dangerous to have co2 in your house. My room is sealed, but it's just plastic and tape. A co2 alarm for your house I think goes of at 400 or 450, you want 1500. How dangerous is it?

Are you thinking of a carbon monoxide alarm?

Kindfarms420,

Tell me about the "blues" if you would, we've been thinking about trying them out but really want to hear from someone that's actually using them to find out if they are really what they seem.. Right now we are running ushio's and other then the extra heat they put off we love em, but still want to see what the blues do.
i like them and so do the ladies ive noticed the nodes are closer together and when i top the new growth comes in a bit faster. this is comparison to the regular hortilux 400watt halide.. its also seems light the plants are a bit more vibrant in color but that might just from the "blue" from the bulb..overall i think there worth it

I thought that shit was dangerous
if your in a room thats sealed with 5000ppm for awhile it could potentially suffocate you because the lack of oxygen in the air but i just turn off my co2 while i work in the room that way if i keep opening the door the co2 isn't being wasted... but i have worked in my room several times with the ppm 13-1500 and i was fine.. carbon monoxide is real bad for you if thats what your thinking of

How often do you change your bulbs ?
i change my flower bulbs around every 6 months sometimes a little longer like 8 months just depends on my money situation its not cheap buying 8 bulbs at once lol and my veg bulbs about the same there is a world of difference from taking a brand new bulb and putting it in a reflector next to one that has been used for 6 months new bulbs are just so much more bright i also clean my glass thats in the reflector as well as the bulb 1 time a week dust also knocks your lumens down big time also the life of the bulb
