Question about c02 and flowering

  1. I actually have 2 questions.... dont want to double post.. :)

    I have a 20 Pnd C02 tank that run's a total of an hour a day, (15 mins every 3 hours) regulated at lowest possible output

    1,000 Psi

    floater ball is at the number 1

    my question is How long should i expect my tank to last me? through a harvest?? 2?

    any input is appreciated

    ALSO, Question about flowering, Im about 3 weeks into flowering, Running in the Supercloset Deluxe, 600 Wt hps, C02 enrichment, Ph I keep at a steady 5.5-6 with RO water and using technaflora Nutes,

    I "descrowled" as much as possible at week one of flowering, removing bottom leaves and branches that i knew were not going to make it up to the light.

    My question is, now at week 3, some of The bottom Leaves, branches, are starting to die off on there own, and I am able to just pluck them off.

    Is this normal?? to my understanding the plant is now exerting all its energy to flower.. so lower leaves, Branches should be removed anyway.. should lower growth be dieing off?

    SORRY FOR THE LONG WINDED POST.. TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE

    THANKS GUYS
     
  2. Sorry I cannot answer the Co2 question, I never used tanked Co2 so I just don't know, and don't want to give you bad advise..

    But the lower fan leaves dying is pretty normal and common..
    What I have always done is trim off the dead and almost dead leaves..

    Toss up some pics, we ALL love Bud Porn!! ;)
     
  3. For sure.. will do.. asap..

    thanks for the advice..
