Pretty sure I've been using the CO2 scrubber wrong for over a year.

Never put water in the bottom. Was wondering why media wasn't getting used.

And my high indoor CO2.

Hmm

Just added the 1 tbsp of water to the canister. Let's see if it starts working.
water is already dried from the co2 scrubber. so... what was the point. Definitely not adding water daily to it. lol

is there a break in period where the media has to get saturated, then the daily addition wouldnt be needed? i know nothing about the scrubbers. but it would make sense that constant air flow through or over water would cause increased evaporation.
