I was just wondering how much wind I can have going against the seedlings because I have a stationary fan that doesn’t oscillate and have it on the plants 24/7 and I’ve heard that it can be bad for them if it’s too much. Posted a video.

i'm a new farmer, but i believe i read that you shouldn't put it directly on the seedlings as it can cause wind burn and possibly twisting of the leaves, but rather have it facing a wall in the tent to bounce off of for a "natural breeze". might be best to do a little a little research on it to double check to make sure. good luck with your grow!

Not much. Just move the air around it. You wont want to damage as there is very little root stability. A humidifier is the best for seedlings
