CO2 enrichment day or night

Is it better to run my CO2 burner in my flower room for the 12 hours the lights are on, or for the 12 hours they are off? Or should I be running the burner 24/7? I am not sure when plants process CO2.

during the night, plants dont carry out photosynethesis which is a process in which they requie CO2. they carry out respiration during this time which requires oxygen. so have your co2 burner running when the lights are on i guess. thats an educated guess, i'm not a professional grower, i'm a newbie so wait for more info that ppl are sure of. i cant see why it would be to be on whilst the plant is in the dark though. gl

Thanks guys, it makes perfect sense to me but someone replied to a previous post of mine telling me to run exhaust during the day and CO2 at night which had me confused, thank you again.

listen co2 enrichment is point less let the ventelation nere some smoke every so often every 2 days or so

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here but if it is that C02 does nothing then you are sadly mistaken.

If you're trying to say it's pointless to do it if you're running ventilation, then yeah. People overcome this buy running alternating phases of venting and injecting C02
