Yes theoretically it will work, you'll have to raise your room temps into the 80's (dangerous! but it's really the only way they get "pushed" into using more) but without having a proper measure of Co2 concentration, the plants would more than likely just get heat stress and not benefit fully or at all. Co2 is a very advanced treatment, requires hundreds of dollars of investment (timers, regulators, really an environment controller), and is easy to stress your plants unless done right. For now, I'd just use a few gallons of the sugar/yeast mix and maybe throw in a shamrock or two (for luck! haha); using a tank without the proper regulation will be a waste of your money.
4x5 Reviewed by 4x5 on . Increasing yields with C02. How exactly does this work can someone explain why C02 helps so much, i guess in scientific terms. And I had a nifty idea for distributing it, my friend has a 20 oz. C02 tank with an on/off valve, so you can spray as much out of it out at a time as you wish. (funny as shit to blast people with when they're not expecting it) Would this be a sufficient way to get added C02 to plants, or am i retarded? Rating: 5
