About CO2 GRO Inc.
GROW's (www.co2gro.ca) mission is to accelerate all indoor and outdoor value plant growth naturally, safely, and economically using its patent-pending CO2 Delivery Solutions. GROW's global target retail plant markets are food at $8 trillion per year (Plunkett Mar 2017) non-food at an estimated $1.2 trillion per year with retail tobacco at $760 billion (BA Tobacco 2017), and floriculture at $100 billion by 2022 (MarketResearch.Biz estimate).
GROW's CO2 Delivery Solutions are commercially proven, scalable and easily adopted into existing irrigation systems.
CO2 Delivery Solutions use micro-droplets to create an aqueous film saturated with CO2 surrounding the leaf. This film isolates the leaf from the atmosphere and creates a diffusion gradient that favors the transport of CO2 into the leaf and other gasses out of the leaf. The dissolved concentrated CO2 then penetrates the leaf's surface providing more carbon for enhanced plant growth.
Indoor CO2 gassing has enhanced plant yields for decades but 60% of the CO2 gas used is typically lost from ventilation. Current greenhouse CO2 gassing levels of up to 1500 PPM are not ideal for worker health and safety. GROW's safer infused CO2 Delivery Solutions can be used by both indoor and outdoor growers with minimal dissolved CO2 gas loss and much greater CO2 plant contact resulting in higher plant yields than both CO2 gassing and no CO2 gassing plant yields.
