I have a valve to release the CO2 in a slow fashion so when I give the 2L bottle a shake I can see the bottle's sides expand under the pressure...

It has had an amazing effect on my grow :) It is so easy to set up it's crazy not to use the simple system.

I will be changing the yeast every 5 days or less. So I can do a whole bloom with 5 packets or so... it's cheap as chips so why not invest in it !

But really, there is a lot of CO2 coming out of that simple 2L bottle... More than you can imagine ! :)

Do you have a picture of your co2 set up by any chance? Im making mine the same way except I have 6 1 gallon containers which is one container per 2 plants. It has seemed to make a difference. My question is do I have enough yeast added? I wen with 10 tbsp of sugar, filled with water to about 3/4 full, and added one tbsp of turbo yeart per container. Also I have drilled a 3/8 hole in each cap on the container and inserted a hose about 5 inches long for venting the co2 out

hey silent leprechaun, first of ive been reading your grow logs and your posts, some quality work both on here and in the tent, makes for excellent viewing and reading to anyone even mildly interested in the subject, i have just a few questions you might help me with, i'm starting my first grow, its a closet grow going to be using all cfl's have air circulation in the form of large pc fans one intake at bottom and one output at top, also going to put a small oscillating fan in with the girls, i'm gonna grow blueberry, and am using soil, i seen in one of your posts you said irish water wasn't great even if left out for a few days, so what do you use ? and do you work to a schedule as far as watering, nutes are concerned ? any other pointers or tips would be great,

Yeah, CFL are a nice addition to the LED. The CFL fill in the gaps left by the LED. Many LED lights have very tight bandwidths in the blue and red spectrum which leaves a large area open.

The LED I use incorporates 7 bandwidths and UV and IR. The newer models are 14 band I believe. However, filling in the gaps is a good idea all round.

Also, the heat expelled from the CFL's can be used to keep the tent temperature at a nice 26 - 28 degrees if you have trouble with the cold.

I use the heat from the CFL and send it back into my house through the carbon filter. It's a win/win situation for us all.

Hope this has helped you.

Take Care

Nice read mate great little grow!,think it's time I made the transition to led my eyes are sore with looking at the proof they do seem to actually. Work,need to get away from the old â??if it's not broke don't fix itâ?? mentality, once again nice one mate.
