Co2 as a limiting factor

If it seems like I was being condescending , it`s only your interpretation of the written word cuz nothing`s further from the truth....and "things that make you go hmmm " is me scratchin my head and my ass TRYING to be of SOME help when you come on this forum and ask if CO2 can be a limiting factor since your plants don`t look as good as they normally do when you`ve been in the same room for 15 yrs......so...

EVERYTHING I post is from personal experience over many many yrs of doin this shit , and I made my post based on the very small bit of info you provided , so yeah , go back and read again what I said about lights off exhaust helping with getting rid of EXCESS RH and CO2 during lights off like most commercial growers do in sealed rooms , yet it`s not spoken of on the forums except rarely....plus....

Your post about 2500 ppms not being detrimental to the plants is waaaaay fuckin beyond me and all my yrs , so I`ll gladly bow out of this thread since you`re not asking for help but rather making fairly ludicrous statements as fact when 2500 ppms is only good for the CO2, NG , and propane suppliers...now....

Go back and read my post about Pot being classified as a "C3" plant that ONLY requires 900 ppms and LESS during the lights on sequence for dialed results , and THEN shits out the EXCESS it didn`t metabolize with the excess water vapor taken in by the plants during nutrient uptake , instead of your statement about the plants MAKING their own CO2 which is horsefuck....regardless....

You STILL have yet to ask anyone`s opinion on WHY your plants look differently AFTER all the responses in this thread , and THEN when I try to explain scientifically from first hand experience about how CO2 can YES be a limiting factor , all you came back with was my post was condescending instead of asking why I made said post.......that said....

Figure it out , or go read up on C3 plants and their ACTUAL needs and not what the hydro whore manufacturers preach about 1500 ppms being the target for so called optimum and monstrous yields , and I assure you that 2500 ppms do your plants ABSOLUTELY no good other than maybe choke out and suffocate any bugs in the grow area.......

Peace....DHF....:ying:....

Man,you sure want to show off your superior intellect,its a shame you didn't even understand my post lol.Where did I say my plants don't look as good as they normally do.Maybe you should read it again.My plants look fine despite not using co2.Thats was my point.They look fine without my cd-6 propane generator

I personally don't mean to sound abrasive AT ALL, but you should take a good long hard read through the forums. It's very humbling to see just how much more "intellectually superior" some of these people are, and you can never quite tell who. They must have all somehow gotten fired from their $250k jobs or simply quit to grow dope AND somehow, in their brilliant, prosperous, and studious lives, and with so few hours in the day, they happen to find the time to come and try and help people that ask questions in the form of statements. THAT to me.. is a miracle. God Bless ICMAG.

997 Ppm is the optimum co2 input for glasshouse tomatoes on Hydro running 32c. The regulator and PPM meter and atomizer need to be running 5 mins before lights on to ensure the internal clock isn't disrupted and growth is sustained. You'll not need much blasting in the mornings before the 3-6 week phase doing it low, but the more you give them the more you have to give elsewhere..

TreehouseJ I sincerely appreciate the folks at OG and here,it has changed my lifestyle to a life of joy in many ways.A lot of people have taught me a lot of things,but when people are questioning me the person should at least know what I said! I never said my plants didn't look as good as they do normally,I said the exact opposite!My plants look fine without my usual 1500PPM but lets forget all this anyway,it makes no sense anymore if it ever did
