Fan Question

[Niklaus420]

Hi everyone

I recently put in 4 seedling that I germinated outdoors indoors in a closest with no fan or ventilation. I haven't found a cheep enough one yet.

How long until I start having problems with the air circulation?

Please help

Soon. Plants need fresh air to grow properly. I would put tape around those clear plastic containers - light is not good for roots.

Thanks I have bought a fan and have taped the containers. Think I will transplant them this week. And I just bought a small fan that can get the air flowing around the room..

There is a gap under the closest door that air can come from the room in ? and how long should the fan be on for if they are under 24/0 light cycle?

I run a fan for 24hrs. from day one.

Always run a fan! Not just for circulation, but also for stronger and better yielding plants. When you do re-pot them, bury them a little deeper as your stems are a little on the long side.
I don't use cfl's myself, but I believe you can get those a lot closer to the plants without ill effect.
