New Grower First Grow Ever (NY)

It is not NEEDED but can be done. Look in DLI and PAR.
IMO your inline fan should be running most of the time if not all the time
Damn, okay! I have a few vents open. I’ll start running the fan regularly tonight. I think I want a small fan to point at my plants too. Any recommendations there? Much appreciated!
 
I follow this:


What lights are you running and can you post the PPFD map? Most LEDs now can hit 1000 PPFD. 12 hours at 1000 PPFD = 43+ DLI. This will grow autos no problem and your photo can flower.

After the first set of true leaves are an inch or so long you can gradually turn the lights up over a few days to 42 DLI. Just think about it the sun does not have a dimmer switch. The plants can take it as long as the temp and RH are good at 78°F day 68°F night with RH>60% <75% for seedlings then >40%<60% as they mature.
 
t. I think I want a small fan to point at my plants
Yes good Idea IMO maybe not directly pointing on plants but moving around in tent yes. Check my grow journals look at my tent. I have 3 fans circulating air my 5x5. 1 intake and 1 exhaust fan. Exhaust and intake fans run all the time between speeds 6-10. Circulating fans shut down at lights out. I am running 18/6. My first grow was 24hr. Then I went to 20/4 now I am liking 18/6. Still think my flower tent light might need turned down some more

Ok cool. I’m thinking one of those oscillating tower fans running on same schedule as my lights, then just having the in-line fan going 24/7!

Upping brightness to 100 probably tomorrow. Would’ve started it at 100 if I knew better. Just have to make sure temps aren’t too hot when I do it
 
Watered last night and one of them are a little droopy today. I’m assuming that’s overwatering :doh:

over watering is the easiest thing to do. Takes time you will get it. Once mine are big enough to take a full watering I put them on a schedule. Twice a week one nutes one recharge

Word is it’s better to over water than under water, but not trying to do either! My temps are right around 80 with ~40% RH, so I’m hoping it fixes itself quick. No watering for a few days!
