anyone know if a co2 regulator for fish tanks will work just as the higher priced ones for growing outside fishtanks? It looks the same to me but I dont know and the fish ones say something about a bubble counter.

I think the only dif would be a flow rate but thats why Im askin you all.
Please help
thanks

First off I to will be building my junior's in the next week or so and had a question for you

Will you please give me the dimensions? Wondering how many I can fit in a 8x4x6.5 tent(thinking 3)

About the soil nutes I don't know form first hand experience but I would think so, considering the fact that Stink

hiself has used(mayb still is) pro blend veg for soil and liked the results. Looks at the ratios(N-P-K)

and see if there similar if so I'd say go for it. Me personally I would go for it either way you never know until you try

and would hate to waste those nutes.

Hope I helped a lil

Peace

Tiger Woods, the dimensions of mine are 44"x27"x49". I opted to build mine without the ball valve because I am only growing in a 4x4x6.5 grow tent, and the valve made it just a little to long for my setup.

Not running CO2 but the regulator with solenoid would be the same except this one regulates to a pressure guage versus a flow meter! It still needs a CO2 monitor to switch on and off at your determined levels of saturation. You can convert psi to a flow rate. just do not have the formula at hand. Good luck, do you really NEED the CO2???

I just figured that the fish one put out less at a time. If it were up to me I wouldnt even bother with the co2, but its for a buddy who just got there taxes back so they want me to source them up the equip. And help them get started. Then there supose to hook me up when they pull there first crop off. Helps me if it works cause Im out of my outdoor harvest that wasnt that great this year.:bigjoint:

It's my understanding that you don't really need co2 unless you have HEAT issues or maybe a tight room

C02 increases yield and potency. So plant 30% more plants and call it a day.

I will run C02 but where I live it is hot in the summer. It will be easier to bring the temp to 85 versus 72. So C02 for me will save money by my calculations.

I must have missed something too. What pics? Where? And if there were nudie pix, why were they posted on a grow forum? Did I miss the link to the girlie pix? Dont get me wrong, I really like naked women. A LOT, but there are places for that. As to the quality of the content, so to speak, I cant say. But Stink has never steered me wrong before, so I will trust his judgement as to the barf rating of said photos. Sounds like there are some sour grapes comming into play too. I sort of would like to know, but since it doesnt have anything to do with growing, it doesnt fucking matter. What happened to spead the love?

Hey Stink! Long time reader, first time poster.

First, Let me just say that I love what you've done with this entire thread! There needs to be more people like you in the world brother. Now that that's off my chest I have a quick question haha :bigjoint:. Ive been reading and made it up to page ~80 so if you've already covered this forgive me for asking again! (I've noticed people don't like to read before they ask questions :blsmoke:) Do you have a zip file or somewhere to access all of the material you've covered in your grow on one easy to access page? I'm getting tired of filtering through all of the hoopla, and just noticed today that this thread is about 800+ pages long! Yikes! If so have you covered anything more on the "scaled down" version or the "Harvest a 1/2 LB in three weeks" version? I am very interested in starting up an identical grow to yours but I don't have the space, but the scaled down version would fit my needs perfectly! If you, or anyone for that matter, could help me out to point me in the right direction I would be very very grateful!

The main instructions are on p.75. of this thread. You can also go the stinkbuddies website www.stinbuddies.com and you can download any of his systems. He is in the process of re-doing the web site so a lot of the information has been removed, I assume temprarily but it ia a great website if you are doing the stinkbud system.

Good luck,

heres a couple pics of my new room... no c02 yet but im trying to figure out a way to use my natural gas centrel house heater in a closet right next to the room to supplement the grow room with co2


any ideas?

heater below
Your on the right track thinking about using exhaust gas as a supplement for the garden but not with ANY furnace,even with a modern 95 percent efficient furnace the ppm of toxic gasses is way too high to chance in an occupied dwelling.

My line of work affords me the use of air monotoring gear where ive found out for myself that even the cleanest burning furnace or boiler is too dangerous to use.

What you can use is a gas or propane fired water heater & run the exhaust vent into your room,just be damm sure that the exhaust pipe going from the heater has enough rise to allow the exhaust to flow & not become vapor locked within the pipe.

Ive ran both my main room using the exhaust from my natural gas fired water for over 3 years straight with excellent results in bud production vs straight non supplemented air,i estimate an easy 10 % increase in overall bud production which in a room your size will add up into lb's.

Ive been chastized by the nay sayers & the doomsday police on this site for giving this advice in the past, not to mention being threatened with an infraction from fdd for giving dangerous advice but it is what it is ,the system works great & poses very little danger to life.

It works great for me.
