HighTVanswered grow question 5 years ago
Hey there Freedonia! To answer this question, anywhere in the room is fine for the fan as long as circulation is going past the main nodes.
Now about your other question in week 2. This seedling is experiencing severe PH fluctuations. Its important to maintain a PH around 5.8 as best you can with a slight variance between 5.5-6.5. The main cause is the fluctuations being so severe. To prevent this you want to make sure to adjust the PH daily to minimize the window it drifts between and completely change out your water + nutrients once a week.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask Freedonia! π

Hi @Freedonia! Avoid direct breeze on seedlings! The goal is to make the air circulate, not to shock your plants. π

Keep a fan far in the corner, let just a general airflow pass around your tent. Just because a fan is keeping the air cool doesnt mean it will reduce light intensity...and a seedling this young id focus on keep the humidity up, the ph good, and just a light air going around. You could even have a fan low so its not blasting it. Happy growing βοΈ

hey those little fans are absolute garbage more likely to wind burn a seedling than to get enough air flow inside buds, the best you can do is to buy a small 60W exhaust fan and a "difuseair" you want the air coming in from the top at an angle so it "bounces" off the canopy. hope this helps ! π

i would let the breeze go above the plant, with enough distance to the lil one, but she got to move a little, when the breeze comes. i prefer oscilation fans , so you have good circulation (surface, plant, and room) start with alight breeze

Hello ! A fan is good as she will have to produce a good root system to resist to the wind but a fan too close from the plant can lead to wind burn so I would advise you to let the can in chopped , not too close and slightly higher than the top of the plant. I hope it will help you ππ

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short lifeβ¦

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
