CO2 enrichment during the flowering phase??
Posted: Thu May 17, 2007 1:17 pm
i was reading a few grow books, etc, and there was a section about CO2 enrichment. Pretty much, it said that when using co2, the optimum temperature is about 80 degrees, because that boosts up the metabolism, and is benificial for plant growth, as long as there arent any limiting factors, such as insufficient light, hydration, nutrients, etc.
However, it said that the temperature increase is not needed during flowering, so i was wondering if the ideal temperature goes back to 70-75 degrees?
are the ideal climate conditions perscribed for flowering the same as normal regardles of c02 enrichment. Is it even worth it to use c02 for flowering or should i just use it for the vegetative phase?
and when taking out hot air from the top of the room, and putting in new air at the bottom (maintaing temperature and humidity) does anyone know from experience how much co2 is lost in the process?
also, if u use an airconditioner in the room, and cool the air internally, does any co2 get lost? or does it just come out cooler?
