Cool!

As your plants gobble up that CO2 that's less wrecking our atmosphere!

That's a neat find! My brewing room is adjacent to our plant/seed starting room. I probably won't move my beers out of the fermentation fridge, but I might have to put my 1-gallon wine fermenters on the shelf near some potted plants and see what happens.
