    From what I understand, you dont want a direct source of air/wind, you just want a gentle circulation.

    Looking tasty

    just turn on your exhaust it should provide enough air circulation to keep mold at bay.If you blow a fan directly on them they will dry to fast and taste green also the slower the dry the better it will burn!i would try to get that humidity down a little just using your exhaust should help.

    Heres a pic had no idea how to make smaller but which fans should i remove

    1: exit fan (for smell pushing threw carbon filter)
    2: extra fan 1 (air circulation)
    3: extra fan 2 (for cooling lights)
    4: Cooling Fan (pulling in cool air) can't be seen in the pic but i made a mark on pic

    turn on your exhaust fan only and check on it daily for mold but you shouldn't have that issue .i hope you cut it down and this is an old pic?ahh i went to top and re-read i see your in dark period ok what i said still applies.

    I will be cutting it down t/m night gonna do what u said an disconnect all fans ex exhaust/exit fan... one more thing im a first time grower so really dont know what the mold would look like an what to do to stop it from starting to gain mold..... is a good idea to turn off the rest of fans while in dark period ?

    The mold will appear as gray dust or brownish black,usually found in the tight spots in between buds or where buds will be touching.you can leave fans on during dark period not going to affect anything.google tga mz jill she wrote an article on curing buds that is very good read. if i have time i'll find it for you.

    56 rh and 75 temp is near perfect. With a exhaust fan you really don't need a fan circulating air inside but I use one, I just don't point fan directly at buds and i use low setting. No less then 5 days no more then 10. No need to worry about mold at that humidity with air movement. It's easy to spot anyway, sometimes it black, sometimes white, sometimes gray and many times it looks something like cotton candy. Thready stringy looking stuff. But again, unless you had high humidity in late flower and/or in dry room mold isn't a worry.
