Hey guy's was just wondering should I have Oscillating Fans blowing directly onto the buds or just above the top of the canopy ? I'm also having a fan in line of my light to blow the heat away. Hope someone can help cheers!

Hey man, imo its best to have a fan at bottom and top of canopy for all round air circulation. if you only have one, place it just above the canopy(where the bud sites are) and just let it breeze gently over your garden, you always wanna make sure u got the fan blowing on some of the stems. as it helps stems grow strong.
Okay sweet when they are in full flower should I have it blowing onto the buds or above the top of the canopy? I will have a fan on the bottom as well (I'm using 2 6" clip on fans)
yeah have one on the floor for just all round air movement, and have the other one just blowing on the buds, just below the top of the bud sites(if u know what i mean) best of luck anyways should be fine, u have any pics of your girls? what u runnnin at the mo?
Right okay so the wind is bowing over the top of the bud sites? don't want them to dry out! should I leave them on 24/7 in full flower as well or just when the light are on? I'm germinating them atm! and they will be running on 18/6 it's autoxtreme btw!
autoxtreme nice choice, looking forward to seeing the results, no just have the fan just blowing on the top, or just over the top of the bud sites, they wont dry out or anything, i turn all my fans off at night for 6 hours, but some people prefer to leave there carb filter/fans on 24/7 its up to you mate. but if it was me i wuld just have the fans on when the lights are on. is your inline connected to your carb filter? or do u just have the inline exsausting air from your light out of your tent/room? or do u have 2 inlines?
Yeah I know they seem like monsters haha! well looking forward to it! okay I get you dude! when they are in full flower I'll have the carbon filter on 24/7 but I'll do what you said have them off for 6hrs! I have a silent inline attached to my carbon filter but I haven't got a cool tube I'm going to have a 10" fan inline with the 400w hps to blow the heat away!
yeah they are monsters! if done right! yeah some people prefer to have carb 24/7 as the plants seem to give out more of a smell when the lights turn out, but my smell never escapes the tent so have no issues there. but yeah for first weeks turn the fans off at night because are not needed(and are noisy IMO) i have to sleep right next to my grow tent lol. if u buy a cooltube, or a double ended vent reflector, u can have the whole system linked up together so the air is being sucked through your carb filter through the inline, ducting(towards/through the cool tube) and have another inline on the other side, so its all linked together instead of having 2 ducting systems. ALSO the air that is being sucked by your "10 fan inline outside the grow room ISNT being filterd by the carbon filter, so u will have smell problems outside the tent. hope this makes sence. id show u a pic of my oldsetup but have deleted pics.
Seen a few grows with them and they look awsome I'm using BioBizz nutes with it! I won't have to put up with the noise as I am not sleeping with them haha! I haven't got the money for the cool tube atm
no sorry I mean I have a 10" oscillating fan inline with my hps blowing the heat away from the plants lol
