Question
Is there any way of compressing CO2 gas without using the big equipment that I have found on the web? I would like to compress my own CO2 gas for my green house.

Thanks Peter

Answer
Peter,
 Have you checked with any plant/flower catalogs?  They might have something small for a greenhouse.  Also, some of the scientific supply companies we use may have what your looking for.  Try:  http://www.wardsci.com/

If your just after CO2, we just buy our CO2 gas from a supplier. You may want to consider that.

Hope this helps.
