5-10, that ain't shit. Ya'll are gonna see the new fan I got in there in tomorrows update. Gonna do a new type of stress that I had forgotten about "wind stress". Having fans that are too strong for plants as they grow (as long as the plant isn't straight up bending or being uprooted), will just make the plant grow thicker and stronger. I added a fan that is 20x stronger than the old one if not 100x. And that's kist on setting 1, it has 3 and I haven't even used the other ones yet. Plus I'm gonna get a vent fan.
5-10 IS SHIT if you run 6 of the damn things Finshaggy. When you fire up 6 1000's and the temp goes up 30 degrees, don't be surprised lol.

The 1, I think you will be okay.

I think the fan will also help the water evaporate even FASTER. So I can water more :D And I feel like the more it dries out and gets more water, the more it grows stronger.
The 1000w and better air circ will lower your RH. The plants will start consuming more water. Correct.

Edit: with that being said, you will need to reduce your PPM for your nutes. The plants will drink more water but they wont require the nutes. If you keep the PPM the same and your RH drops, your plant will be forced to eat those nutes and you will end up with nute burn. So.. when that RH number is lower, run lower PPM.

Those 1000's can really throw a stick in the front tire of a grow. Temps, light bleaching, RH values, etc.

Depending on the space, a 1000w can increase the area temp 10 degrees or more.
I'm not worried about room temps at all. I have just never personally seen anything over a 400w used in a real life grow that I was physically at. So I have NO idea what's up with distance for the 1000w from the plant. But I have researched shit and I know what to do about fans and shit. :D

I run 6x1000w setups. Anything more than that, your in the 500$+ electrical bill range ;)

With the 1000's, they will bake your plants if they are too close to them. You are better off having them high and working your way down. If you nuke your plants, your yields will suffer dramatically!!

Damnit finn, when you say 100x there better be some plants bending over like dates on prom night when you post that video. This could make it stronger, i think your on to somthing....dank :( dank :(

You should be worried bout temp cus you are def right you will have to water more. But not for the reason you think... When temp gets too high your plants will push that moisture out through the leaves to try and cool itself like how we sweat. I had this happem on my last grow when i tried to get as many watts of led as possible in my tent. Long story short temps would hit 90+ and my humidity would start to go up. I supplemented with co2 and never saw any heat stress, watever weight i lost was put right back on by extra watts.

i run 4k in a 8 x 7

heat is my enemy
I ran 4k in a 4x8x7 tent. I had to pump outside 20F air into the room @ 400cfm and exhaust at 400cfm. My RH was 20 or lower all the time. Shit was a battle I tell ya. Even worse was the ducting would constantly freeze and have ice plugs in the bottom of the tubing and the heat would make it sweat. Big pain in the ass.

Yeah, I saw my friends "Fox Tail" With a 400w because they grew too tall.

The fan I had alone before today is actually a heater that I set on "fan" mode. It's a shitty fan. Now I have a real one. And it's on the lowest setting.

I'm thinking of making a CO2 system with yeast and molasses.

So are we going to see some 100x fan power tommorow or just the surfer hair cut bend in them?
Ya know... Fin is actually having a legit thread. I'm actually inclined to help.

And don't be a hater because you have your LST skills maxed out :) I saw that technique sucka, you ain't foolin' me ;)

Def have to post an update of that. Never heard of that but havent looked into making my own that much. I heard a bed of earthworms next to ur grow can help supplement but idk. I but co2 boost buckets, they are a lil steep but on my last trip to the hydro shop i noticed they sell the shrooms (pretty sure thats wat it is) in a vented bag right next to the bucket for half the price so i an going to try just switching em out. Nice to see we habe gotten away from the personal attacks for a moment to exchange some knowledge...

Those co2 bags are lame. Better to coin up for the real gas.

That might be because it doesnt have the pump and tubing to get the co2 where u need it. If u dont hang that bag above your plants i dont imagine it would do much since co2 drops since its heavier than air.

Those bags work horrible when you're working with air exchanges. If your air exchanges are extreme, you'll want to go gas so you can turn off that air exchange for a minute. Bags are worthless with high air exchange rates.

Agreed on the exchange. I have a timer on my bucket pump and outlet fan so i dont waste it. I also flood my room with co2 an hour b4 they wake up
