Ok today I opened up my new biology book and looked around with water expirements. Well there is this one that is very basic. You get a container, 25mg of baking soda, fill the container with water and drop a very hardy plant in the container. After that put the baking soda in the water and put a 125watt light up to the container for a few days. Then it says do it without the baking soda. In all it said baking soda when added gives plants a large boost of CO2 in the water? Is this true,, just by adding baking soda to the tank and with large light amounts will keep plants healthy by feeding baking soda.. I feel like such a noob but can someone clarify all this for me?
