co2

Splifman, is your light aircooled? If not you may want to look into that.

So put the co2 bottle in front of my fan. I thought I wasnt supposed to have a fan on when I put co2 in there. Except exhaust fan. When I shake it it bubbles and then runs up the tube a few of them pop but they run down the tube and I have to keep cleaning it off. Am I doing it wrong?

Yes, I have the proper hoods, but they are not air cooled at the moment. Here is the deal, the way I see it is I have three options. Air cool the hoods, vent the room, or do both. By doing both, I spend more money. So that is not somehting I want to do. Already spent so much. By cooling the lights, I still need to leave the door adjar with a fan blowing in fresh air, and teh smell is still an issue. By venting the entire room, I can use a carbon filter to take care of the smell and leave the door copletely shut to avoid light leaks.

That is why I am leaning towards just venting the whole room and putting the fan on a timer to allow for CO2 release.
Will 5 or 10 minutes every 1 or 2 hours be enough C02 enrichment?
