ossalating fans.

Post by big rob »

ok ive read loadsa places that using an ossalating fan is good for your growing process. jus recently though ive heard that this is not the case. see as the fan rotates, it blows the plant obviously causing it to sway from side to side. now the rest was explained to me like this : "when it blows it and makes it move the plant gets damaged. then 'plant has to use its reserve to repair." im sure you know what it means. reserve is kinda like energy. well thats it anyway.

You definately need some kinda fan. Just think logically- if it looks like a hurricane hitting your plants, that is too much wind. The leaves should be rustling a bit. but not the entire plant swaying

And to continue what i was saying in the above post ; marijuana plants produce resin in their leaves and bud right? Right. Okay, so what is this resin exactly? Well, essentially it is a protective coating for the plant. The plant produces resin to protect itself from thigns like wind, rain, heat.... but only if it is actually exposed to such . The more the plant feels endangered, the more resin it will produce to protect itself. (And luckily for us, the resin is the part that gets us high!) But now of course, we musn't go overboard exposing our plants to such things.....to much is worse than none at all.
If you want your plant to save energy for growing big bug, then keep all the dead, poorly looking leaves off your plant. Just pinch them off withyour fingers. That does a lot for your plant and is simple.
