I use DIY CO2 on several tanks including a 180 gallon. The latter
grows plants very well, all types, forty species+, using two 2-liter
bottles changed at alternating intervals of ten to twelve days. Of
course a pressurized tank is easier, cheaper, less time-consuming,
and generally more stable unless a disaster occurs. But it does work.
