Description
The Autopilot Digital CO2 Controller is an advanced device designed to maintain and regulate carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in indoor gardening environments. Ideal for use in hydroponic systems, grow rooms, and greenhouses, this digital controller ensures that plants receive the optimal amount of CO2 to enhance photosynthesis, boost growth, and maximize yields. With its user-friendly interface and precision monitoring, the Autopilot Digital CO2 Controller is an essential tool for serious growers seeking to create the ideal atmospheric conditions for their plants.
Key Features:
Digital Precision: The controller features a digital display and interface, allowing growers to precisely set and monitor CO2 levels. This digital accuracy ensures that the desired atmospheric conditions are maintained for optimal plant growth.
User-Friendly Programming: The user-friendly programming interface simplifies the setup process. Growers can easily set their desired CO2 levels and configure the controller to maintain specific ppm (parts per million) concentrations, tailoring the environment to the needs of different plant varieties.
Integrated Sensor: The controller comes with an integrated CO2 sensor, eliminating the need for additional equipment. The built-in sensor continuously measures CO2 levels in the environment, providing real-time data for accurate control.
Adjustable Setpoints: Users can set specific CO2 setpoints based on the growth stage of their plants. This flexibility allows for customization, ensuring that CO2 levels are optimized for seedlings, vegetative growth, and flowering stages.
Day/Night Modes: The controller offers day and night modes, allowing for different CO2 concentration levels based on the time of day. This feature is particularly useful as plants have varying CO2 requirements during their light and dark cycles.
Fuzzy Logic Algorithm: The fuzzy logic algorithm enhances the precision of CO2 delivery. It continuously analyzes the rate of CO2 depletion, adjusting the release to maintain a stable and consistent atmospheric CO2 concentration.
Remote Sensor Capability: For more accurate monitoring, the Autopilot Digital CO2 Controller supports remote sensor capability. This allows growers to place the sensor at different locations within the growing space to capture variations in CO2 levels.
Safety Features: The controller is equipped with safety features to prevent CO2 over-enrichment. It includes adjustable high and low concentration alarms, ensuring that the environment remains within safe and optimal limits.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Hydroponics?
Hydroponics is the science of growing plants without soil. The plants thrive on the nutrient-water solution alone. The growing medium merely acts as a support for the plants and their root systems while the solution passes freely. The growing medium, if any, is totally inert.
What types of plants grow best hydroponically?
Anything can be grown hydroponically, but some plants prove to be more space efficient. Some plants we suggest are tomatoes, sweet peppers, hot chilies, lettuce, spinach, squash, cucumbers, broccoli, beans, snow peas, herbs and flowers of all types.
Can you REALLY get better yields/quicker growth?
Absolutely. The plants, when receiving everything they need, tend to be healthier, faster growing and generally more productive. You can expect 30% faster growth with many crops.
What are the watering cycle timelines hydroponic systems?
Once the reservoir is filled with nutrients, it is time to put your hydro system to work! The ease of hydroponics is automation – automation is achieved by putting the pump on a timer according to your watering needs. The watering cycle depends on growth stage, growing medium and hydroponic system. In an ebb and flow or drip system with rockwool as the medium, seedlings, clones and plants in the early vegetative stage require watering only once a day for 15-30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Mature, flowering and fruiting plants require a heavier feed and can be fed once a day for 30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Typically soiless mixes and coco fiber can be watered for about 15 minutes twice a day, and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. ViaStone, Hydroton, Grow Rocks, and Silicate mediums need to be watered more frequently – a constant drip for drip systems, and about 15-30 minutes every 3 hours for ebb and flow systems and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. Aeroponic systems require frequent watering cycles; 30-60 seconds every few minutes or a constant spray.
What do I need to test pH? How do I test pH?
pH has a range from 0 (acidic) – 14 (alkaline), with 7 being neutral. A proper hydroponic pH range is between 5.5 to 6.2 for most hydroponic crops. For specific crop pH, check out our Plant Guide. pH must remain within the proper range for good plant health, disease resistance, and proper nutrient uptake. pH is maintained by adding pH Up and pH Down to the nutrient solution. For more information, see the Testssection of our site.
How will the flavor compare to my outdoor grown, organic produce?
The taste may be even better! This is simply due to the fact that the hydroponically grown plants are getting everything they need, when they need it. Don’t be fooled by “hot house” produce grown commercially. The grower’s primary concern is shipability and storage, not flavor. When you grow your own vegetables at home, you can expect nothing less than excellent results. Plus, hydroponically grown produce has the added benefit of a longer shelf life.
