Do you place fans blowing directly at your buds?

A friends been telling me that plants like wind when in veg but when flowering they don’t like it directly on them. But I’ve been noticing my largest buds are in the places with most airflow.

What is your setup in regards to this?

You don't have to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. Sorry, just like that lyric.

The further along I get into flowering the less fan I want on my plants.
It is a matter of preserving thrichs.

I grow in tent and and as things are getting heavy i direct the oscillating fan towards the corners and let the air bounce off the tent and into the plants. Workin good for me. To much fan will cause damage obviously but in veg i like to see em moving a bit

Yes, in veg it is the difference between strong stems and weak twigs.

Avoid having the fan directly on the plant as it cools the plant to quick including the sap/xylem/ plant blood

it then stalls like a tar that just hangs in the plants tubes until warm again

it called Anthrocyline or when the plant starts to turn red/blue or purple

that be stalled sap...and theirs better places for that shit than hanging in a leaf or tube

good luck

When needed I use a 20-inch box fan in my flower room doorway. I turn the fan around so it sucks out air from the flower room. Cooler air will then travel into the room.

Good luck, BigSteve.
