fanning plants

will a fan pointed to the plant/s really make the stem stronger? ive never actullaly tried this. can i leave it on for only like 8 hours? or does it need to be continuous for this to work?

It will help to strengthen the stems to support all the nice buds you'll be growing

Also helps with ventilation

can i have it on for only 8-12 hours to work?

Mine is on a timer with the lights. 8 - 12 hours a day is ok. You're just trying to recreate the effect that the wind would have on the plant if it was growing outside.

ok, thanks a lot

Wind on plants is like working out for humans...it breaks down the cells and regrows them over top of the others...just tlike human muscle does.

yo dude,, I have my fan on all different times,, my thoughts are,, anything is better than nuthin,, and I havent done bad........ good luck....................

When my plants get big I need the fans on 24/7. Exshust fan and ocilating fans

yeh really you should use a oscilating fan so the breeze moves also having a fan on 24/7 not only strengthens the stem and keeps the air circulating it also helps prevents mold,but if you can only have it on for 8-12 hours thatll be much better than nothing.peace
