Dude, read the the subject line of the thread......... when you understand the topic, come on back and discuss methods for adding CO2 to your grow. No one is comparing nutes, soils, molasses and other shit, we are discussing CO2. The seltzer is simply a cheap method to introduce additional CO2 into a grow. What science are you citing to debunk that? If you actually read the University study, you would know that the results were clearly evident, not "barely" evident as you describe.
Seltzer water at Food lion comes in a 32 oz bottle for $0.79 that is the third time I have told you that. I go through about 2-3 bottles a week, less than $3. It is not in place of fertilizers, it is not in place of fresh air. It is a supplement. I've compared grows side by side with plants that got seltzer and plants that did not. I'm sold on it. You can continue to not to use it, but don't post that it's a worthless idea as you did originally, because you are wrong and just being ignorant at this point.
I have yet to see plain seltzer water sold in 12 or 16 oz bottles either. It generally comes in 32 and 64 oz and is sold as a mixer for drinks. The seltzer I'm referring to is this seltzer. Soda water can be used for the same benefits, but has added sodium and should be avoided.
Jorge Cervantes sure knows his shit, however I've never seen him do cheap grows. Therefor he never covers money saving ideas such as this.
Again I say to you, it's simple science and your prices are way off. Foliar feeding works, it's been proven. Adding CO2 via seltzer to the stomata works as well, whether you like it or not. It is a cheap alternative to feeding a lot of sugar to yeast or having welding bottles hauled in and out of your grow (hardly stealthy or cheap).
This is my last post on the matter. I've made my points and have nothing else to say. Your rebuttal lacked any citation of science and the monetary figures you cited are anything but realistic. You must be referring to something like New York Seltzer which is flavored seltzer water.
