Couple months ago, installed a Sentinal co2 controller cppm-1.
It controll only the co2 distribution with the lights on.
I have the box so that canope temps are 85F, without exhaust
fans.. except the fan for the light.
The light fan is on/off with the light, on med/low.
But this little 3'x3'x6' (54cu ft) is now sucking a bottle of co2 every 60 days. Is this normal usage?
I've watched the ebb and flow of the PPM counter on the Sentinal.. it is set point at 1250 and runs 1185ppms to 1470ppms.
That cycle seems to take about 4-5 minutes...
Earlier in the grow temps, without the light/fan on kept the canope about the same... so although I'm thinking 'the light',
I also know, the co2 swing was about the same without the fan.
What else should I look for/can I do, to slow the co2 loss?
Not that $25 every 2 months is alot, I just dont like going there.
