Outdoor C02 increase

Hi GC members/outdoor growers,
I have recently found out that increased co2 helps the plant with photosynthesis, ultimately increasing yield, but i am going to do an outdoor grow. Any tips on how to increase c02 outdoors?
Thanks

Burn a fire = smoke = CO2

Dude, outdoors you dont need to increase co2 - I suspect the reason I am the first person to reply to this thread is cos no-one else is willing to state the seriously obvious.

Thats cool with me, I'll state it... I'm your gal for the obvious shit...hehheh


Ok...so picture somebody using a fan or something to increase co2 outdoors... now whats wrong with that picture? (If you still dont know I can't help you)

thanks for your.....help....

im a new grower, dont criticize me for what i dont know. ive spent plenty of time looking around and ive found that a higher concentration of c02 helps with photosynthesis, therefore i wanted to know if there was a possible way to make my outdoor plants have the benefit of high c02 ppm.

Additional CO2 is only necessary if you're "force-feeding" your plants...usually in a hydroponic grow in an enclosed space. Gardeners increase nutrients, light, and temperature to unnatural levels and increase CO2 because these type grows will be able to assimilate it. Growing outdoors in natural conditions, added CO2 will just dissipate.

I do believe there is a benefit to communing with your garden. I often sit among my plants, talking to them, breathing their vapors and in turn, exhaling on them.

umm dangermouse sorry to sound harsh to you but what the hell are you talking about putting a fan outside, fans do not produce co2.Even indoors i make sure fans are all off before administerating doses of co2 exhaust fans will just suck the co2 right out.

you can use carbonated water when you visit your plants. spray the bubblie water on them. just buy the cheap shit. nothing complex about it. but you dont really need CO2 outside

"Global warming" is caused in part by higher co2 ammounts in the air...co2 is at its highest natural levels in recorded history. It's the last thing you need to worry about when growing outdoors.

umm "sexydankcpl420" using intake and exhaust fans, in a grow room, provides constant co2 - obviously. Its called airflow. You make sure all the air in the room is replaced every few minutes - which provides fresh co2 for the plants.

Jeez....bitchy...
