1. Canopy-Level Clip Fans – 2 to 4 Total Mount just above the canopy height, angled diagonally across the tent. Place one in each corner (2 minimum, 4 ideal). Angle them slightly downward and inward to move air across plant tops, not directly at one plant. Adjust as plants grow — always just above the canopy, never blowing hard directly on buds. 2. Lower Fan (optional but recommended) Place 1 clip fan near the bottom of the tent, pointing just above the soil line, across the pots. Helps prevent stagnant moist air at the base (prime mold/mildew zone). 3. Oscillating Tower Fan (Optional Add-On) If you have space, a small oscillating tower fan in one corner on the floor can help mix layers vertically. Don’t point fans directly at buds during flowering — can cause windburn and dry them out. Don’t blow air straight down onto soil constantly — dries it out unevenly. Don’t skip fan use in veg — high humidity + stagnant air = mold later. 💡 Extra Tips for Humidity Control Use an inline exhaust fan pulling humid air out — mount this at the top of the tent. Use a passive or active intake low in the tent to pull in fresh, drier air. If RH is still too high, add a small dehumidifier inside or outside the tent.
