Should I have a CO2 generator for my greenhouse?

    0:16 burning wood gives off double the amount of carbon dioxide compared to gas and its probably cheaper for some people who live off grid. You can filter out ash and tar using hydraulics, and easily control the amount you want to introduce to your plants. A wood burner carbon dioxide generator also produces charcoal as a by product, useful for both plants and humans and also used in many other technical applications.

      Charcoal saved my life as an infant, dying of dissentary. Nothing helped, I was bleeding to death. Doc gave me some charcoal and I started to thrive, gain weight. Natural substance. Good for bloating and gas as adult. Neutralizes. Still here!

    Wow! So in practice all the material I read about cellular respiration can be thrown out the window! The plants just need it to breathe, not to just undergo photosynthesis (even though CO2 is used in that process).

    I worked for an orchid grower back in the '60s. He would burn alcohol in a kerosene lamp in the greenhouses to add CO2. Not a new concept! Plants reverse their requirements at night. They use O2 and CO2.

    Do you happen to have a link to that Cornell article About the lettuce using CO2 at night and increasing by 50%? or do know anything else about running co2 at night. Very interested.

    another great video!! can you reference the studies with a link or more info on who/when/where published?? thank you

    Is the quantity of CO2 produced from farming animals (probably small ones) in a greenhouse area comparable to the CO2 needed?

      Kowzorz that was my first thought. Chickens

    The global warming fear mongers totally ignore this fact - plants grow better with more ambient CO2. If they want us to go vegan we need more edible plants thus more CO2. More CO2 will help mitigate food shortages for the next population doubling. More is better.

      If carbon dioxide is heavier than air ... do I hear crickets from the ‘Global Alarmists’ ... hello

    But plants ARE CO2 generators!

      ahhh...you mean O2 generators

      02 is realesed by photosynthesis & calvin cycle/darkcycle needs C02
