Not sure if anyone has done this yet or not... Just seems like a good idea!

Check it-:rasta:
I've seen in another thread that CO2 could be distributed to plant using a bucket containing a mixture of sugar, water, and yeast.

Assuming this is true

What if that bucket had a cover on it. On that cover, a hose comes out stretching the length of of your plants, capped off at the end. Out of this main hose (PVC would suffice now that I think about it), smaller tubes are attached feeding directly to each pot. -Kinda like a drip irrigation system, but CO2 instead. The CO2 being created by the yeast would be forced out of the the bucket through the main tube, and going directly to your plants via the connected smaller tubes...

Would this work/make a significant difference????:confused:

Hope it mad sense, attached a photoshop drawing of the idea...

LOL this is baout the 400th time ive seen this post about using yeast and sugar for co2 its a waste of time u can get more CO2 to your plants by breathing on them, talk to your plants like 15 minutes a day and u will get more CO2 than that will in a week

.

From what I've read, it's not about sudden bursts of CO2 now and again by breathing or extinguishers, it's about a continous, raised flow during a period of about a month, midway between veg-flower.

what are the requirements to run a CO2 system properly? temp min/max, humidity min/max, and so forth.
