setbacks??? "whatchya talkin about aaron?" lol and as for the CO2,,, i grew for a few weeks in just the cabinet with just light and plain ole air. but then i read more and more about how CO2 will help out alot so i wanted to try that. will after finding out how much the timers and all that you need to use bottled CO2 are i thought i'd better come up with a way to get it cheaper and in a small cabnet like mine i dont have room for the bottle or much of anything for that matter,,,, but i read that burning natural gas gives off plenty of CO2. well i mover my cabnet to the room next to the water heater that burns natural gas. well long story short, i ran the exaust pipe outa the top of the water heater into the cabinet down about 1/2 and a new pipe out of the top of my cabnet to the roof exaust for the water heater. CO2 is heaver than air so the CO2 settles to the bottem of the cabnet, while the hot air raises to the top of the cabnet where i have a fan to suck it out of the other pipe and out the roof. ( no smell and no heat) some say that the CO2 just falls down around the the fire inside of the water heater and stay in the water heater closet, but im not too sure i believe that. the water heater pulls a vaccuum so it doesnt seem possible for the CO2 to stay down there and not get pulled out.the plants were growing ok before the CO2 but now they are "for lack of a better term" kickin ass. the plants are about 8" and the stems are about the size of ink pen, with some with 9 nodes. they are thick and full. i think ill start makeing them bud in less than 2 weeks maybe 1. the temp in the cabnet went from 78 to a high of 82( thats with the water heater running for 3 hours srt8).i dont have a meter to check the CO2 levels or anything so i have no clue how much they are getting, but i know the plants dont lie and they are happy as hell right now. ima try to grow with only floros this time just to see if i can do it. i think 10 4' floros may work. well let me know about your setbacks. take care
