Do you really need a fan when hanging buds?

I've heard of ppl letting the buds hang without ventilation for a couple days after harvest. But what about no fan at all? Just hang em in a closed cabinet? Im worried they will dry too fast seeing that they were grown with cfl's if I use a fan. And I know yur not suppose to put the fan directly on em already. Anybody??

the moisture and heat will mix, causing mold.

fan em in the dark for a couple days till they feel dry on the outside... then put em in jars... the moisture from the inside of the bud will come to the outside of the buds... open the jar every day for a while to let it get some fresh air... cure like this for a month or two and you'll have some killa buds.... oh and make sure your jar is in a dark place.

not true i didnt use a fan on mine when i hung them and no mold formed. they wernt in a air tight dark place but they were in a dark closet for about 5 days. just make sure the temp dosent get over 80ish.

Just because it didn't happen to you doesn't mean it can't happen. A fan is highly recommended to protect against mold and to help it dry (air circulation around the bud).

no air circ isn't the best but possible with risk. Just b careful if its to humid

The fan blows in the dry are not on the buds as you want to prevent mold and mildew and the circulation helps prevent that and slowly removes moisture as the air moves.

Just have the fan going, It doesn't need to blow on the buds?
