Anyone tried exhaling one's personal CO2 supply on seedlings? I use the clear cup method to pop and place a upside down funnel over the cup and exhale into it. I base my science on watching a friend's mother do this on her zucchini seedlings: there were a large zucchini harvest that year. Could use a minty mouth rinse to prevent any fungal infections?

I think that is over kill but let us know how it turns out.

Never considered this but I should have. Excellent idea.
The way I see it it’s a ratio which means it should work in the early seedling stage and an early boost can’t be bad. I may give this a shot on my next grow by using a large dome for the first few days and using a straw to exhale into the dome. CO2 is heavier and should stay in the dome. Just for like maybe 3 or 4 days

The problem I can see with how I wish I could use it is airflow. Let me think on this one
I’m sure Unca can come up with a lengthy procedure for us…
What if you fart on them?

I pump CO2 out of a tank into my grow room. I did do some seedlilngs that still had the dome over 'em with the CO2 that was coming out of a 5 gallon carboy with fermenting corn and sugar in it. Figured, why waste it?

Yeah but no jiggin‘. I guess I need to learn to jig.
My singing effect would be worse than botrytis
The co2 is all that matters and the song of course…
That one will work I’m sure
