a number I found quickly says a greenhouse full of crops consumes 0.12-0.24 kg CO2 per hour per 100m²

- cinntaile 4y agoI don't think those numbers are applicable to house plants. Crops grown in a greenhouse are specifically grown to increase their mass in as short a time period as possible. Regular house plants usually don't increase their mass that much (you don't really want them to), they don't get nearly as much energy and nutrient input as greenhouse crops.
