Airbombz CO2 Dispencer

The AIRBOMZ Remote Control CO₂ Dispenser is a low cost solution for increasing the ambient carbon dioxide content in smaller size indoor gardens. Plants that are growing rapidly will quickly deplete this important gas in a poorly ventilated room which can severely stunt growth. Plants use CO₂  during photosynthesis, where it converts into sugars in a complex series of reactions. These sugars fuel all plant processes and feed beneficial microbes around the root zone. Having an ideal concentration of carbon dioxide is a great way of improving performance and yields. Another great benefit of increased CO₂ levels is that plants can grow and thrive at higher temperatures and humidity; great for those warm summer months!

The AIRBOMZ unit uses batteries not mains power and so has no trailing wires that can get in the way. The canister slots into the bottom of the main body and CO₂ releases at regular intervals, set by the user. As plants don’t photosynthesise at night, releasing carbon dioxide is pointless. The AIRBOMZ unit has a light sensor on board and will stop any gas from being released during the dark phase, saving you money. Each one also comes with a remote control, giving you control over it from a distance.

Make sure you can get to the unit!

Please be aware that you may still need to access the unit periodically to change the canister! Lifespan of the canisters will of course vary with use. In a seedling and cutting tent, they can last months as they will need very few applications due to the very small surface area available to use the CO₂. Larger rooms with larger plants can see you getting through a canister a week. However, if you get the carbon dioxide concentration right, the cost of the canisters will be well worth it!

This box set comes with an AIRBOMZ Dispenser, remote control, one Maxi canister of gas and some mounting screws. Canisters are available separately here. Remote control requires 2 x AA batteries (not included!)

Alternatives to the AIRBOMZ Remote Control CO₂ Dispenser

At Straight Up Hydroponics, we have a few other options for increasing CO₂ levels in the grow room. The Exhale bags contain a fungal mass in a sealed bag that slowly releases carbon dioxide over a 6 month period. Alternatively, we have CO₂ tablets that you drop into water where they slowly dissolve, releasing their gas. You can see all of these options on our website by clicking on this link.
