The tops of my plants are stretching and starting to fill in with buds, they are also starting to sway a bit more with the fans. Will this disturb the formation of crystals? Should I aim the fans more towards the lights for heat distribution? Or is this a critical period of air circulation around the buds to prevent mold? Also I am trying to keep the humidity down to between 30-40%, usually jumps up to 48% after watering. Is this a good target %? Canopy temp constant at 78, room temp at 75.

I would say the fan is good to keep the temps down. You could also prop your buds up gently using a stick and a string or something. I would say prop it lower than the bud to not actually touch it, and do it loosely, but just enough to hold it up. I think the fans are good to keep fresh air in the area and to keep the heat at a good temp. The wind also strenghens the stems I have read. Good luck.

Yes! keep the fan in the middle, That's what I did and it kept my buds from drooping to the floor b4 thier time :)

If they r not ripe and they droop, tie them up! Good luck & happy harvest.
