1st Grow.. I have the Lights and Circulation Fans turn off at the same time. But my AC Infinity Tent Fan stays on to maintain the humidity threshold I have set, and it runs on and off all night..

About an hour or so before Lights out, the Plants start to lay down as if they are getting ready to sleep. Come the morning when the Lights come back on, the leaves are reaching high like no other time in the day. But I digress..

I'm just concerned about Mildew and Rot..I probably shouldn't need to worry about that as long as I maintain Humidity under 60%, right? So far so good, but I haven't reached the Bud Phase as I'm still in Grow, so I would like to hear your opinions on the subject..

Thanks!

I like to keep a fan running 24/7. TBH I have never tried to without so idk. What I can say is to avoid PM and rot keep the day/night swings as close as possible. Big jumps...hot dry day, cool moist night is a recipe for disaster. 👍

I just got the cloudline and love it. But the humidity inside the buds are alit higher than the air itself. I blast the buds with fans and don't worry about wind burn.

Thanks for the replies.
I have read and noticed myself that the Plants really Transpire in the Dark. Do Buds Transpire to?

I have some cool little Honeywell Fans on the floor, but I need something that stands or mounts up high and oscillates.

There's a lot to choose from. What are you guys running??

I run the oscillating fans 24/7 to keep air moving. The big 8 inch exhaust fan during lights on and every three hours during lights out for 15 minutes just to refresh the air in the space. I also run a 6 inch intake in both the flower and veg room for fresh air during lights on. Plus a couple clip fans blowing on the drivers when lights are on. Seven fans for a 4x8 flower and a 4x8 veg room...lol..My wife jokes that I must really be into fans...lol She don't understand...

2 x 4...1 mini tower fan directly on the plants, and 1 6" blowing over drivers. 24/7. Exhaust comes on when it gets too hot, cold or humid.

I hang my Honeywell fans and when I point them at each other them become oscillating all by themselves! Haha

I often wondered that my self… wind burn? I’ve never heard of it… although, I personally keep a fan running 24/7 it is actually a floia on low, not sure if the “clean air” it’s shooting is actually better or worse, as I don’t have a grow room as most of the guys and gals here do, for me it’s just a few plants on a table near a window, but that escalated fast when they started getting big, now there in some decent sized pot molds, but I’m afraid my 1 footer is already starting to bud, leaving me with the hard choice of transplanting or not.
