ExHale CO₂ Bag – A Natural and Continuous CO₂ Source for Your Plants
ExHale brings carbon dioxide (CO₂), one of the most important sources nature offers plants, back to indoor gardens. Just like light, water, and nutrients, CO₂ is critical for the healthy growth of plants. With ExHale, you can now meet this need in a natural and effortless way.
What Is It?
The ExHale bag contains a special type of mushroom (mycelium) that does not produce fruit. This mycelium consumes the special nutrient mixture inside the bag and produces large amounts of CO₂. After the bag is opened, it provides regular CO₂ production for 6 months – guaranteed!
Why Should You Use ExHale?
- 20% - 30% More Yield – As CO₂ levels increase, plants grow faster and more efficiently.
- Requires No Maintenance – Just install and forget! No electricity, water, or special adjustments needed.
- Silent, Heat-Free, Energy-Free – Completely natural and eco-friendly.
- Suitable for All Areas – Can be used in gardens of any scale, from small cabinets to large rooms.
- US-Made and Patented Genetics – A high-quality, reliable, and effective product.
Technical Specifications
- Breathing Patch: Its microporous structure allows CO₂ inside the bag to escape while preventing outside microbes from entering.
- Durable Plastic: Resistant to punctures, reducing the risk of contamination and spoilage.
- Special Substrate: A nutrient mix that enables the mycelium to produce CO₂ for an extended period.
- Patented Mycelium: A special type of mushroom developed exclusively to produce CO₂ and does not produce fruit.
Bring the power of nature to your indoor garden with ExHale. Healthier plants, higher yields, and a completely effortless solution.
Why Is CO₂ Important?
Fotosynthesis is the process by which plants produce carbohydrates using sunlight, water, and CO₂. Plants growing under artificial light indoors often cannot get enough CO₂. This reduces photosynthesis efficiency. With CO₂ supplementation, plants grow faster, become stronger, and produce more yield.
How Much Area Does ExHale Cover?
ExHale Cultivator is suitable for small to medium-sized growing areas. One bag provides the CO₂ needs of 4 to 6 plants. In larger areas, you can use multiple bags; the effect remains the same.
Does Activation Required?
Only the ExHale 365 model requires activation. After removing the hook, the mycelium mass should be placed on the substrate inside the bag. The bag begins producing CO₂ at full capacity within approximately 2 weeks.
Where Should I Place the Bag?
Since CO₂ is heavier than air, it is recommended to hang the bag about 30–60 cm above the plants. Each bag comes with a hanging fixture. This positioning ensures CO₂ falls directly onto the plants, maximizing yield.
What Is the CO₂ Flow Rate?
- Flow Rate: Approximately 0.5 ft³/minute
- Concentration: 2500–3000 ppm CO₂ richness
- Total Production: 130,000 ft³ CO₂
Does CO₂ Affect Root and Clone Development?
Yes. Increasing CO₂ levels directly affects root development. More, thicker, and faster-growing roots are formed. In cloning, root development typically starts 3-5 days earlier.
What Is the Relationship Between Light and CO₂?
Photosynthesis consists of two stages: light-dependent and light-independent reactions. Plants absorb CO₂ during the day to perform photosynthesis and release oxygen. At night, they only respire. However, CO₂ consumption peaks during the light-supported carbon fixation stage of photosynthesis.
Does CO₂ Only Benefit Healthy Plants and Increase Yield?
It provides both. CO₂ supplementation:
- Shortens Harvest Time
- Increases Resistance to Diseases and Pests
- Provides Higher Yield
Examples:
- Lettuce given CO₂ was 30% heavier and harvested 11 days earlier.
- Tomato plants supported with CO₂ produced 20% more fruit.
- Strawberries given CO₂ showed more flowering, which means more fruit.
Is Too Much CO₂ Harmful?
Yes. When CO₂ levels rise too high, plants cannot transpire enough. In this situation:
- Nutrient uptake decreases
- Growth slows down
- Dead tissue may form on leaves (necrosis)
- Bacterial and mold formation may accelerate
Ideal CO₂ level: 1200–1500 ppm. Going above this value does not contribute to yield increase; instead, it may be harmful.
