Yes. You need fans.

Plants don't have lungs. They need a breeze. The plant fibers are also about 80% carbon, which they inhale.

Air is as important as lights or food.

fans build strong stems and keep plants cool, exhaust is what we are really after for fresh supply of co2.

ight, well i have vents on one side, low. which i guess would be my intake. on the opposite side i have a vent cut out up high, which i guess would be my exhaust. im guessing thats not gonna be enought by itself. do i need a fan on both sides?

your exhaust should be at the toward the top, to get rid of the hot air, if you have a decent exhaust fan u don't need an intake fans if you have vents on the bottom
