Has anyone heard of or ever personally used this co2 boost contraption??


CO2 Boost - Supplier of CO2 producing mixture for the purpose of CO2 enrichment and air fertilzation (http://co2boost.com)

i have about a 7x11 room that will eventually be split in half.
would this be a good alternative to a propane system or something similiar?

its 135 bucks....worth it?


another question.
like i said, im going to be splitting my room in half(veg and flower)
if i can only buy one of these co2boost things, would i be better off putting it in the veg or flower room?

or i spoze i could get a splitter for the hose on the pump and get some into both rooms? or would that weaken it so much that it would not be
beneficial....hmmm.....

any thoughts????

thanks ahead of time :thumbsup:

The boost system is very clever but expensive to operate, as the refills are pricey, and you cannot regulate the production level.

What you describe would be best served by a tank injection system with the output hose split off into a Y and run to each chamber and inserted into the back of an oscillating fan.

I paid something like $200 for my whole CO2 tank system- regulator, timer, tubing, fittings, tank purchase, and first fill. Refills are $20. One fill lasts me one full crop, or more in a 2k chamber.

thanks stinky...i didnt even think about the refill cost, good point.
im not even sure if im going to do co2, i think my money would be better spent on lighting and air filtration...dont ya think??
