Non-oscillating fan in small grow box: good enough for now?
BunnyBudstarted grow question 7h ago
Hey growers! 🌱 I’ve got a 9-speed USB fan (quite strong but not oscillating). For now I point it at the wall so the airflow bounces back on the seedling. Any better way to position it in the box until I upgrade to an oscillating fan later? 🤔

Hi,
Fans that only blow in one direction instead of rotating can really dry out the leaves in a grow tent .
I made this mistake myself before and can definitely recommend not setting it up that way. Maybe you have the chance to put in a cheap household fan instead?
They don’t cost much and can make a big difference for your plants. Also keep in mind: later in flowering, this setup can cause your buds to stay too moist, which increases the risk of budrot.
Happy Growing

Your setup will work for now. Air circulation is very important, doesn’t necessarily have to be an oscillating fan. A fan you can clip on a corner bar that is adjustable will do just as well.

Totally fine for now, it's the extraction that matters most as they start to get bigger. You've got to have airflow, man...or it will end up with light burnt leaves from moisture /condensation buildup during the night cycle and under top touching leaves during the grow cycle. Like you see happening a LOT on here. Quality extraction solves all that. Hope it helps. Didn't see a diary for this yet. I'd be keen to follow along if you do make one.

Grow Tent/Room setup in the basement - dehumidifier or humidifier needed?I’m planning a small grow setup in my basement and have a room that’s holding a steady 17–18 °C (62–64 °F) with about 55–58% relative humidity. My plan is to vent the exhaust from the grow box straight outside through an existing duct. Will I need a de- or humidifier?

Can you please tell me if the sides need to be covered with earth?When I covered the soil in the beginning it wasn't like that, but after waterings the soil shrunk and now there is space between the pot fabric and the soil. Should I add more soil to avoid root problems? And also the water drains down there and quickly runs downhill 😞

Set Up TentHow should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? I’m in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?

Trouble keeping my RH below 65% in grow tent (I water once per 24hrs, 20% runoff)Hello fellow growers!
I am having trouble keeping my RH lower than 65%. Any ideas (without using a dehumidifier)?
For extraction, I have a RAM mixed flow with a passive intake. It seems for the space (0.8mx0.8m), that this is more than enough. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!5y ago

Maintaining VPDI've got my photoperiod doing well in a 2x2 tent. I'm trying to regulate my VPD with what I have on hand. Currently I'm running my exhaust fan for 8 minutes every hour to get an average VPD around 1, but I'm concerned about the swings. Am I micromanaging?
