Hi Folks,
Would anyone care to quantify fluctuating CO2 levels? This term crops up a lot but exactly what does it mean? The word 'fluctuating' refers to something that varies with time. So, when we refer to fluctuating CO2, are we referring to CO2 levels that vary throughout the photoperiod after stabilization? By which, I mean once the CO2 level has built up and settled to some level before the lights come on? Or, are we talking about variations in CO2 concentration from day to day? And how much fluctuation is considered acceptable? If we use a drop checker, it is so slow to respond that many fluctuations are undetectable.
