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!

I use 6w 4inch usb fans on seedlings up to 3 weeks.either blowing just about them..they work perfect.just to help strengthen the stem alittle and airflow.damn i thought i had a vid on seedling.heres one a bit later as you can see how gentle the 6watt usb fans work.it blowing just above them..

your good or do as @HarryHood mentioned
 
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
