Does it hurt the plants to leave the fan always on?

I have my fan (Air Cooler) on 24/0. it is on low and it blows between the light and the top of the plants.
Is it OK to let it work 24 hours a day or should I turn it off?

if its to cool your lights then turn em with your light schedual....if it is your main circulation then leave it on 24/7

It is both, my main circulation and it also keeps the light cool. It seems like others keep it on all the time and it doesnt hurt the plants. I guess, I'm gonna leave it on since it doesnt hurt anything.

I would say leave them on 24/7 that's what i do and it works just fine.

After all a bigger stem can only do more good.

Bigger stems hold bigger buds.

I left mine on 24/7, but not directly at the plant. I read that it creates strog stems, and prevents mold.

I too leave mine on all the time, on medium, with every grow. As others said, it makes the plant sronger, thicker stem, and it also helps keep flying bugs off them (not completely, but helps).
