Hey Reg! Its been a while and I see your grow is so much cleaner and looks great! I remember you had a large branch in solution and it stared to root. You had it in a big glass vase. Did that ever amount to a harvest? Also another question are you still cloning from flowers? Sorry just trying to get caught up

Last but not least I came up with a very easy and cheap solution for CO2 addition in the grow room. MUSHROOMS! that is what are in the co2 bags you buy. Well I decice to tak it up a natch. Heres what you need

Foil lasagna pan
Standard white (button) shrooms from the grocery store (no not cubensis but you can)
cardboard (disassemble into sheets)
Drywall dust
Water

So easy!

Take the shrooms (buttons grow very fast and taste great) and slice long ways.

Take the cardboard (flat) and soak for ten minutes Then place a layer down on foil pan

Place slices (1/4 inch thick) of your chosen shrooms and layer on top of cardboard

repeat till you have 3-4 layers with the corrugated (wavy piece of cardbaord in middle) and the last flat pc as your top "casing" layer

Cover with plastic wrap and place in warm dark place for 15-20 days. Once you see growth move under grow room light.

In 3 weeks you will have a flush of perfect mushrooms and daily harvests thereafter all the while creating and insane amount of CO2.

Each pan lasts about 30-40 days if you sprinkle a 1/4 teasoopn of drywall (powdered) every 4 or 5 days. I literally have a dozen shrooms a day fresh off the vine.

I do this as a "growing" lesson for kids all the time. Its fun!
