GrowPax Sizing Tips
Don't think of it in gram weight. Think in terms of capacity. We control a volume of space, selecting a size requires understanding how much volume you need to control.
Each GrowPax has a different absorption capacity, for large containers, multiple packets can be used, and sizes can be mixed and matched.
- 2 gram GrowPax: 50cc
- 4 gram GrowPax: 100cc
- 8 gram GrowPax: 200cc
For reference, a glass jar that is 5 inches high, and a diameter of 3 inches will have a capacity of about 120cc. If you use a 4 gram GrowPax in that glass jar your product would be protected.
An HDPE (a type of plastic) jar that is 3.75 inches by 3.5 inches will need a little bit more protection because the material allows more ingress. This jar would have a capacity of about 150cc. An 8 gram GrowPax should be used to project this container.
GrowPax Handling Instructions
GrowPax absorb oxygen, this chemical reaction is irreversible. Because of this, they can only be exposed to the atmosphere prior to insertion for less than two hours.
