Yeah don't get locked up bro. That sucks. Once you get this sorted out, and I feel confident you will, you can pack up :) up have you smelling like you forgot to shower in no time lol

ugh. the sorting is life consuming.... but thank you boss. i think at this point im gonna kick back while the weather is so ridiculously steamy. ill do some breeding once the heat comes down a bit, and my brain isn't melted at the same time.

Yes. One reason I went with co2 about 10yrs back was it saves $ on the power bill by not running my ac as much. I'm a numbers guy, I absolutely LOVE math! You use math every day of your life.

There are tricks I learned over the many yrs. 1 truck is NEVER listen to newbs about co2. Figure out what works for you. I figured out ways to save quite a bit of money.
From flip, up until week 6, I ran 86* flower room temps. This saved quite a bit of $ on ac usage. Plus you get the added weight from co2.

BUT, co2 will show you all your growing errors if there is any.

What worked for me, should work for you, but may not also.

I know what you mean bro; Results may vary is the watchword of the grower :)
 
If your dealing with heat, use co2. I ran 5-10* hotter with co2. It's cheaper than running the ac, and you get more yield.

my budgie lol.... allows for co2 packs for my humidity dome. and thats about it. but things are coming along money wise hopefully. tbh my temps arent terrible, on hot days im hitting 77 F, normal im around 75 which is fine. just won't get the full array of colors on the goo until winter here. gotten blue, violet, very sharp colors out of eternal purple and other varieties with the right environment

I'll send you my old regulator and 100 pack of gaskets. I haven't been able to sell.it in 2yrs. Bottles can be found on Craigslist for 50.00 or so. Run co2 lines behind fans to blow across the plants.
Tank refills are/were 20.00 here. You'll save $ on power costs (ac usage) to justify the co2 expense in 1 flower cycle.

77* in flower is OK. Try and lower it the ladt 4 weeks. If you must, raise the lights 4", this should be 2* cooler. Or swap flower bulbs for veg bulbs. This should save another 2*. I figured out lots of tweaks and tricks when I flowered.

that can work... still in tents but i could run lines inside. or... my future co-op room... hmmm:ohhh:
 
I had 6x oscillating fans that all had co2 lines splitting off from the main line. It blew co2 over the tops. Then 4x fans on floor blowing co2 back up into the plants (co2 is heavier than o2, and sinks).

i remember the pics on that other site, before all the fun stuff happened :snoop:

I sold all my co2 master controllers last yr for literally 90% off what I paid. I still have 2 light controllers collecting dust. 600 a pop, sold for.150 each

ouch! im still blueprinting the co-op room, but no location yet... once we do i'm game. at least for a bare bones co2 setup
