CO2 Depletion?

This my 1st grow. I have 2 Master Kush girls about 11 days into flowering. Suddenly they stopped growing with the exception of some bud formation. They also seem slightly droopy though their soil is plenty wet per my water meter. I monitor soil moisture daily and they have definately slowed in their water intake. Up until about three days ago they seemed fine with the exception of a minor nitrogen deficiency early on that cleared up. I also pruned a few of the poorly formed, spindly lower branches on each plant.

My question is would poor ventilation stunt growth via CO2 depleted air and give the appearance of lack of water? My set up was not ventilated too well from the start and I made further modifications to the grow area that would restrict circulation further. I have corrected the problem today.

Sorry, took pics but they came out poorly so I did not post but I think you can get the idea.

Any input would be greatly appreciated?

No idea about whats wrong, but you could always just make a little co2 container with some yeast, sugar, and water

Yep. I'd recommend a CO2 booster. I bought one from my friendly neighborhood hydrostore :-) Gotta love America. You'll probably need to buy a CO2 refill for it every other harvest though. But it's not terribly expensive if you're getting any kind of return on your crops ;-)
