Unfortunately we had to get rid of the Strawberry Kush last night. It turned out to be a male. Hopefully it didn't fertilize my Jack Herer.

hey! Looking good. I just watched that video. Ease back on that wind. You want a gentle quiver. Movement so sublte that you have to look carefully to see... not wild flapping.

Thank you. It's kind of the only way it stays cool in there plus I did read that it will strengthen the branches. The weather here is cooling off now so i'll definitely try easing off with the wind. If you wouldn't mind could you tell me why it's better that way lordjin?

We must avoid extremes. The idea behind an indoor grow is to simulate ideal outdoor conditions 24/7. A light breeze is what we're trying to copy, not an out-and-out gust of wind. Your plants will be fine if you ease off the wind, but if you constantly batter them with a direct wind source, they'll suffer by drying out... not unlike a heat stress light burn.

The air exchange is important mostly because it keeps your grow enviornment constantly refreshed with new air so that the plants can come into as much contact as possible with the co2 that exists naturally in the air. If you're blowing fans directly onto your plants to cool your grow area, you would be much better off cooling your light bulb directly with an exhaust fan and ducting.
