THE IMPORTANCE OF ADDING CO2
TO YOUR GROW ROOM

Indoor gardeners are always looking for new and innovative ways to boost their yields. There is, in fact, a very simple way to maximise your yields and grow strong and healthy plants, and this is by adding CO2 to your grow room. But what exactly is CO2, what is the best way to add CO2 to your grow room, what is the best CO2 system, where can you find the best CO2 bags for grow rooms, and how does it benefit your plants?

What is CO2?

CO2, or carbon dioxide is what we expel when breathing, and what plants use to initiate photosynthetic functions. Plants actually ‘breathe in’ CO2 in the day, but give out CO2 at night. Levels of CO2 are measured in PPM (parts per million), and ambient room levels are typically in the region of 300-400ppm. Assuming you have sufficient circulation in your grow room you should be able to achieve the atmospheric standard of 390 PPM. At this level, you should see plant growth similar to what you see in your garden.
If the CO2 levels drop below 200 PPM, your plants will stop growing.

It is understanding this behaviour that can really benefit your grow. If everything is being done correctly and you have a fine tuned system, then CO2 can be the one big difference in boosting your yields. Adding enhanced CO2 levels to your grow can significantly boost plant growth without having to change
