@ohne_unterstrich 3 года назад
@[The] White Rabbit thats just plain wrong, plants can "suffocate" with to much co2 in the air, the short term fertilizing effects that you speak off are outweighed by others factors that come with higher co2 levels like heat stress and drought. Its also noteworthy that in most cases nitrogen availability is the limiting factor of plant growth. so any positive effect created by more accesible co2 will be limited by the availability of nitrogen in the soil.
