Fan

eh so I was wondering; do i need a fan for an aerogarden? my AC keeps it at 70-75* and when i turn a fan on it blows the garden around to much, so far no problems without a fan, can i continue doing this?

You want a fan blowing on the plants to give them ticker stems, other wise when you start to bud, then might just fall over and die from the weight on top.

Fan=Ticker Stems=Able to hold buds.

cool so even if the breeze looks a little heavy itll be beneficial? oh and will runing the lights, the ag, the pump and the fan use considerable energy? or is it pretty moderate?

It shouldn't be blowing the plants to death, but if its moving then, then its good. And a fan with just an ag system shouldn't take up too much energy, not more then a computer.

dude i made a grow box and put a 4" exhaust fan and then i put another 4" fan in the grow box it blows the leafs perfectly sturdy as shit now....no need to go heavy duty when their little.
