CO 2 Controller

The ambient level of C02 in air is 300-400ppm, fast growing plants in your growroom or glasshouse can use all the available C02 in less than an hour slowing photosynthesis and therefore growth to a virtual halt. Raising the ambient CO2 level in your growroom causes more sugars to be produced allowing the plant to grow bigger and faster. The optimum level of C02 for plant growth is generally accepted at 1200-1600 ppm, plants grown in this environment can grow up to 40% faster thus shortening crop times and increasing yields. The controller (when used in conjunction with a CO2 cylinder) will administer precise doses of CO2 at predetermined intervals using the electronic controller (supplied) Will work with growrooms up to 150cuM.

Growth Gas Generator

Healthier Plants Enhanced levels of C02 will lead to greatly increased growth in most plants. An immediate response will be noticed, particularly in light loving plants such as tomatoes. Stronger Plants Leaves will turn darker as photosynthetic response increases. Darker leaves can absorb more light so plant efficiency increases still further. This will lead to thicker stems, more vigorous growing tips and heavier yields. Clean and Efficient The Growth Gas Generator is designed specifically for the production of C02. Burning times are very short and heat output is kept to a minimum. This allows the grower to provide C02 at the hottest, brightest times of day when plants need it most. The unit is controlled by an electric solenoid, and can be simply plugged into a timer. This means that the grower can easily set the Growth Gas Generator to provide C02 during the hours of brightest sunlight when plants can best utilise it. The Growth Gas Generator can also be used with C02 sensors to maintain precise levels in the high-tech growing environment. Note: the unit will need to be attached to a normal domestic gas supply as well as a mains connection.
