i have an 8 inch portable fan I bought at HOMEDEPOT that is pointed directly at the plant and/or pot and it has 3 power levels would it be bad to have it on full go through the whole grow process????
I was thinking lvl 1 at veg stage then bump up to lvl 3 during flower stage any thoughts????;)
Probably speed 1 or 2 should be fine, you don't wanna give your plants wind burn...
how big of fan do you need? would a fan from my pc work okay for one or two plants
What's wind burn exactly?
the plant will show stress from too much movementQuote:

You can use a computer fan as a way to suck in fresh air, for example if you cut a hole in the side of your growbox and mount a fan. I believe that is called a "passive intake."
But that will not be sufficient. You'll want something like a 6" desk fan in there for good air circulation.
yeah i got a 8" fan in the bottom side my cabinet i cut a perfect hole in the side and it fits perfect in it and it doesnt move one bit. so it sucks in the air from my room and then i got a 8" fan on top my box thats perfectly fit in a hole i cut out and it sucks the hot air out is this ok...
That sounds like it should work good.I actually have a 8''fan in the bottem right side of my cab also that I cut a hole into that acts as a passive intake.At the top of the other side I have another hole cut out where I put pvc tubing in,and this acts like a vent to throw out any hot/old air that is in the cab.It works pretty good as you can feel alot of air movement comming out the vent hole.Then again I have a small cab.How are the temps.with lights on?
