Cannabis plants need CO2 as part of the process of making energy from light via photosynthesis. Using CO2 in an indoor garden will result in about a 20% higher yield. Although, you may not want to give your plant CO2 throughout the entire grow cycle...
Grateful Grower, a grower on YouTube, has an indoor garden where his plants are currently on week 5 of flower - day 33 to be exact. He transplanted them into 1-gallon grow pots and is using Pro Mix as his growing medium. He used CO2 for this grow, however, he didn't use it for the entire grow.
He only uses CO2 in the vegetation stage for the first 21 days. Why? Well, he talks a little bit about that in his video below. He also talks about the highest yield he has gotten from using CO2 vs not using CO2. His results may surprise you...

Regarding CO2, I have the tnb naturals like you do..i have one and a refill for a 4x4 tent. I planned on using it around week 4. Im running an organic garden with dry amendments. My question is do I need to give it more fert when using CO2. The recommended scratch in dose of feet is 1/4 cup week 1,3,5 of flower. What would you suggest. Its a 5-13-0 with 18% calcium.
