One thing I've never understood with the CO2 injector system approach to
plants: Doesn't CO2 diffuse out of the water pretty quickly? CO2 is a fairly
hydrophobic molecule that has a low saturation point in water. Is the point
merely to supersaturate the water with it by constantly blowing it in? Maybe
the answer is so simple that I'm bamboozled by it.
