Does it matter if my fan is a bit powerful and blows the plants around a bit?

Its an air circulator and it adds a breeze maybe to much of a breeze, is this possible. Should I turn the fan off every now and then? Anyone any info? +rep

If the plants are just gently shaking, then its fine. Its actually beneficial because it helps strengthen the stems. But if its so powerful that its almost blowing them over then just point the fan away from the plants so it still circulates the room.

P.S I've got the fan in my cupboard with the doors slightly open and a open vent at the top, with a 600hps. Temp sits around 22c-27c, This all sound ok?

my theory, plants become sticky to catch pollen, if they live in a very windy place, they need to be extra sticky to catch the pollen, so, wind is good.
