New Grower Finally after 5 year of waiting, decided it's time for a new Grow.

Thanks Sawney, do you mainly keep it pointed at the lights or do you have it blowing at the canopy on the buds?

 

[DCLXVI]

I would have it pointed so it moves the leaves a little on each plant. Blowing either across the tops or through middles to make sure the air gets pushed around. Of course it all depends on how many plants, density, rh%, etc... Sawneys idea isn't bad either.

I have a static fan that is mounted high and blows air around above my light and then oscillating fans down below. It's a 4x4 so lots of room and air that needs to get moved.

I am probably going to install several computer fans for upcoming grows for constant air movement. They are rated for a lot of continuous useage and the "silent" versions are nicely quiet.

Thanks for the reply DCLXVI, always good to a few people's suggestions.

I do it just like Sawney. But then my tent is only 60x60cm and no matter where I put the fan, the plants will get the wind it produces

Thanks for the reply DCLXVI, always good to a few people's suggestions.

I like my fans low down, sucking in cool air from the lower intake and pushing that air up through the plants for max ventilation through the plants leafs and stems and also blows the warm air up to the exhaust vent. But I dont have room to do that with a oscillating fan

I run 2 stationary 6" fans. One at the top blowing over the light ballast and a lower one moving air around the tent.

Here's a couple of pictures of a Sawney bean Hellraiser, 42 days.
I'm pleased to get to 6 weeks and her look ok,
I wouldn't have got this far without the help of a good grower and AFN member and Sawney for the seeds,
top AFN'ers

the Hellraiser grew the first and nothing else seemed to want to after so, she has the tent to herself with a different light, more red in the spectrum, be interesting to see if it makes a difference.
see what you think.

I had to turn the lights off as I was getting interference on my phone camera.

That's a nice health plant mate.
I can't wait to see the end result.

Thanks for the points Sawney,
I've got my fingers and toes crossed mate, daren't breath in case something goes wrong.
