Should I have a fan on at all times cooling? or Do I even need to?

    I have a set-up in my closet and I'm growing three plants. I have 150 watts on them and will probably add more. (should I?) Do they ever get overheated or should I not even worry about a fan or any kind of cooling?

    Aside from circulating air a fan is good to apply a gentle breeze to your plants which will make them stronger.

    I kept an oscillating fan on mine 24/7 through veggitative growth.

    Now that I am on 12/12 I turn it off at night or point it above the canopy.

    Thank You so much. I was thinking that but wasn't really sure if i should point it away or not. Now would the Sprouting stage be part of the veg. stage?

    Negative.

    Don't put a fan on them until they develop a solid root system. Usually about two weeks after they make their first appearance above ground.

    You can always have a fan circulating air... just don't let it hit them when they're too young.

    Is there a certain temp. I should have on the planted seeds while on they're way to veg. state?

    65-75 degrees is optimal.
