Im new to this grow thing, i got a small grow, under 15 plants

I was wondering if i can provide co2 to the plants by keeping a lit candle in the grow room
Most combustion provides some co2, i think

Fire creates CarbonManoxide, not Carbon Dioxide

As long as the plants get some fresh air avery once and a while it will be fine.

If thats not possible im sure there is a Paintball store someplace wher eyou can buy a 20 oz Co2 bottle and have them fill it up for you every week for $3 bucks.

burning makes WAY more CO2 than CO.

its just that CO will kill u vs CO2 is fairly inert at most levels.

one needs ventalation for heat and the like. so if u inject CO2, then u cannot vent it. but if u cannot vent it, u may cause many other problems.

dont bother. until u REALLY KNOW what u are doing...

It wouldn't last a week. You'd be better off going to a welding supply shop and renting a huge tank. Buy in bulk, save $.

Yes thats correct.. But i was simply giving him the cheapest option, proving 20 ounces of Co2 in his small grow is more than enough once a week.. For us growers a 50 pound tank would be necessary... But like i told him, crack a window every so often in the room he's in to get the some fresh air in....

Or invite a hole lotta people to sit around the bush for an hour every day LOLOLOL.
