Carbon Dioxide CO2

Carbon Dioxide is one of the most important factors in an indoor growroom or glass house. Photosynthesis is the term used to describe the process by which plants combine CO 2 molecules with water molecules to form complex sugars, there is a resultant spare oxygen atom which is released back into the air, the sugars being further processed by the plant to form natural polymers for growth. The ambient level of CO 2 in air is 300-400ppm, fast growing plants in your growroom or glasshouse can use all the available CO 2 in less than an hour slowing photosynthesis and therefore growth to a virtual halt.
