    Unhappy Fan on while lights off?

    I am very new to this. I ahave a buddy who gave me some plants that are vegging. They are almost ready to start flowering, should I leave the fan on while the light is off? I don't really know, and he won't be back to check on me for a couple of days. It seems they are extremely moody girls ( a true women, huh!) I have had some issues and went to H20 only and they perked back up. He is also bringing me a PH meter so I know that is going to make a huge diiference. I think right know they are a little low on N, but it can't get it until the PH is right. I will take some pics in a couple of hours (Dark now). Thanks for any help!!

    You should leave the fan on to prevent air stagnation....
    I think they appreciate the breeze.
    I keep my plants ventilated 24/7

    The fan doesn't have to be on all the time. Just like in nature (think summer) it isn't breezy all the time. Constant wind blowing on your plant isn't good either.

    Leave the fan on. We are trying to duplicate Mother Nature. Just a gentle breeze will do.

    at least leave it on with your lights, and leaving it on all the time will not hurt your plant but don't let the wind blow your plants over thats bad

    I keep mine on high facing away from the plant, drawing hot air out of the grow room during the "day". At "night", I turn the fan to ossocilate on low speed directly over the plants...
