About CO2 Gro Inc. (TSX-V: GROW)
GROW’s mission is to accelerate all value plant growth naturally, safely, and economically using our patented
advanced CO 2 technologies.
GROW’s sole focus is working with its plant growers and agri-industrial partners in proving and adopting our
CO 2 technologies for specific growers’ plant yield needs.
The CO 2 technologies work best by transferring CO 2 gas
into water and foliar spraying for use across the entire plant leaf surface area, which is a semi permeable membrane. The dissolved
concentrated CO 2 then penetrates leaf's surface area naturally like concentrated nicotine dissolves
through human skin into the bloodstream from a nicotine patch.
Foliar spraying natural nutrients and chemicals on plant leaves has been used for over 60 years by millions of
indoor and outdoor plant growers. To date, outdoor growers have not had any way to enhance plant CO 2
gas uptake for faster growth.
The indoor method of CO 2 gassing to enhance plant yields has also been used for over
60 years. However, over 50% of the CO 2 gas is typically lost and becomes a greenhouse gas. Current
greenhouse CO 2 gassing levels used are not ideal for worker health and safety.
CO2 Gro’s safer CO 2 technologies can be used by both greenhouse and outdoor plant
growers with minimal CO 2 gas lost when CO 2 is applied by foliar
spray.
Target markets for CO 2 foliar spray are the global retail food market at $8 trillion
per year (Plunkett Mar 28 2017), the global retail non-food plant market at an estimated $1 trillion per year of which $770
billion/y is tobacco (British American Tobacco website).
