Is there such a thing as TOO much wind on clones?

No sir...another guy that claimed he had awesome clones and he shows up with this shit. I just lost 5 feminized aurora's that were absolutely beautiful @ 4 weeks veg due to a miscalculation measuring out my neem oil mix - I mixed a concentrate for 1 gallon and mixed it with only 1 quart of water. New growth shriveled and growth stopped completely...plants just went into shock. I couldn't stand to look at it anymore wondering if they were gonna herm on me so I cut my losses and chalked them up to a learning mistake. It did literally make me nauseous after I cut them all off at the base and threw 'em in a trash bag...

I will say I have good news to report today 4 of the 5 look like they're bouncing back with beautiful lush new growth at the tops pointing straight up to the light and 1 is kinda slow going but I'm feeling a whole lot better about this shit today than I did yesterday.
I'm noticing a pattern here... dirty buddies=shitty clones. Stands to reason I guess.

Good to hear they're bouncing back. Weed is a pretty hardy plant

I was speaking of indoor pests... It was something I came across a couple times when researching how to avoid mites and other pests. I guess I should have stated constant fan current instead of wind.
Well it kinda makes sense... If you've got a link or two to some reading on the topic I'd love to give it a looking over. I'm likely to forget to google it myself I'm pretty baked right now lol...

Yea. Google marijuana windburn, edges will curl and burn looking similar to heat stress but...not
......I'm pretty surprised you don't know this, just based on how many green bars ya got and post count
I think you may have answered a question I wasnt quite asking yet, thanks.

You might be surprised when putting a housefly to the test , they have a strong endurance level and really can take some wind as a guinea pig , other flying insects have no chance at holding on like a fly does . Thrips and white flies will simply choose a place with lower currents as no fan will stop the flying buggers . That is where the old sticky traps come into play for me as a preventative :) .. Some species of insects ride air currents so in the end I do believe a medium setting is best all the way around when it comes to fan settings ..
The other day, a cricket was hanging onto my fender, I noticed him a couple miles from the house. That little bug hung onto that car on the interstate at 75mph for about 10 minutes before he let go.

ya, I actually ran out and bought this janky ass camera for $50 and it took worse pictures than my shitty blackberry did so I returned that bitch this morning and it's back to the drawing board for a digital camera to document my future fuckups :)

Very very nice! Jonny is due for a cam upgrade...I'm not a sucker like the rest of America for the smart phone fad @ $200-$500 a piece + $120/month service, so jonny is relegated to the old fashioned ACTUAL CAMERA. A decent one runs like $150 so far as I can tell....ugghh already have spider mites so looks like my next $60 will be on a jug of mighty wash. damn god for creating spider mites!
