How old is your guys plant ? send a pic or comment

This is my first exhale bag but I’m surprised have fast it got mold. Is this normal after a little over a month?

I believe that’s fungi I think that’s what creates the co2. Interested to see what others may say

Same here blunt! I know the white is good, I’m unsure about the orange/brown part. I know with fungi once you see colors other than white it’s no bueno. I’m just surprised to see it this early but am unfamiliar with the bags

I can say I did see a noticeable difference once I put this in the tent! The plant that’s behind and didn’t stretch till after I put the bag in is noticeably bigger than the plant that had already stretched before I put it in. Nice to see the difference and know you’re on the right track

No worries its fungi like blunt said it creates co2 so all good lol

Sweet, thank you guys for confirming!

You still loving those octopots jamon?

Thats completely normal for them to look like that.

It will eventually turn into a nasty black sludge type of thing and at that point i replace them because i think that’s when they stop producing

Your spot on. Noticed mine was starting to go black and just discarded it as well

I gotta try these bags. How do you guys set up the exhaust schedule on your tent? I’m assuming you want less air exchange to keep the co2 in.

When i used the tent i exhausted every few hours but now in the room i had it hanging with a rotating fan in room and would just open the door every hour or so. I tend to go in the room a lot during lights on so id like to believe im doing okay with air exchange.

I used to just have my exhaust kick on for 5 minutes every 2 hours to exchange the air and that worked well unless it was getting hot. Adding the controller actually made it harder to maintain the ppm because of temp triggers and stuff but that can be programmed around if necessary too.

I’ve honestly kept my exhaust schedule as is because my tent tends to stay a bit on the hot side. I guess I can see if there’s room for adjustment. Lights off it’s pretty solid tho so think I’m good there

In veg I guess it’s a lot easier but I was already into flower when I put the bag in so didn’t have much leeway on it

Co2 allows you to run hotter temps I believe

Even in flower? My tent doesn’t get too hot, maybe low 80’s so if so I just need to keep under 60 rh right?

That would really allow me to keep my exhaust fan running at a minimum

While it does help a lot with higher temps you also have to balance it with stronger feeds and light than normal or the plants can’t make the most of it. Also even though the plants aren’t as bothered by the temps you will still lose terps if its getting too hot
