yea oxygen is good for roots not foliage

Hmm, I always thought plants took in oxygen during their dark cycle, making it not only important for foliage, but necessary for the survival of the plant itself.

The whole plant NEEDS oxygen, the roots just need most of it. Trying to grow plants in pure CO2 = dead plants.
 
I must say, great little set up, I may or may not... have something similar in my closet...

anyways.... there were a few problems i encountered... such as having all kinds of lamps in there like that, and now I must say its not much better, but I can say it is "better."

The key i think, is to just take the time every day or two, and get a piece of paper, and sketch some ideas for what you can do in your area. Then head up to walmart when you can, and get things to make it better. Another is that I dont have a current intake / outtake, just leave the door open sometimes and have a big ass fan in there constantly, and the One lady i got out of about 6 seems to be doing okay minus the little nute burn it got when switching from veg stage nuts to bloom nutes.

Best of luck though, and nice grow. Do what you can with what you've got!!!

Hey kid

Ya might consider attaching the backboard to the shelves & installing hinges on one side. That way you could just swing the whole thing out of the way when you want to get back there to tend your plants...would be much easier.

verry true i think 1500 ppm is optimal.... plus pure co2 would sink into the roots (gravity) so that would fuck you any way
