Random thought, do you think use of dry ice around your plants would help?

yes, is a source of co2!
however, it should not be used directly around your plant but in a bucket or a cooler.
Quote:
One pound of dry ice will produce 8.7 cubic feet of gaseous CO2. You’ll need to provide about .04 cubic feet of CO2 to the garden per day for every cubic foot of grow space. That means that a 1 pound block of dry ice will provide one days coverage for a 217 cubic foot garden, which is slightly larger than a 5’ x 5’ x 8’ area. The trick is to leave the cooler open just enough to let the dry ice sublimate at the rate you want.

A strong smell of beer could be better than a strong smell of cannabis.
