when is Co2 most used by the plant?
Veg or Bud... or like the last 2 weeks of Bud? Should I pump more to it at different times?

During aggressive growth they use the most so I feel they need the most during stretch up until the last ten days ripening. The last 10 days I leach and cut C02out so my charcoal then runs 24hrs keeping humidity low and getting rid of those massive odors. This helps prevent rot if your not running a dehumidifier or ac.

I am wrong about the use of CO2. It is used during the light preiod. Don't know where I read about the dark cycle. I went back to reread some of my books and found that somewhere I got it mixed up.
Sorry for the misinformation.

C02 is used during the dark period of the plants life. You would set the CO2 to turn on for 1 hour, fans off, then turn back on. You would repeat this cycle 4 times during the dark period. This way the plant gets enough CO2. I can tell you from experience that CO2 is very important.
Dark period you say????????

You need took a little further into why the plant needs CO2 to survive. The plant can only absorb C02 during the dark period of the plants life. When the lights are on it's useless. It's best to flood the growing chamber while the fans are off so the plant can absorb the C02. It still blows my mind that people don't bother to read about growing. It's not that hard, there are plenty of books and there is this web site. Basically you can find anything there is about growing and how to do it.
"Photosynthesis (English pronunciation: /foʊtoʊˈsɪnθəsɪs/; from the Greek φώτο- [photo-], "light," and σύνθεσις [synthesis], "putting together", "composition") is a chemical process that converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds, especially sugars, using the energy from sunlight"
Are you sure you know what you are talking about?

You would want to use CO2 during the plant's entire life. Read Greg Green's book. It is very good and have a lot of information about growing.
