I was just wondering, should my fans be running on my box 24/7? Or is there any time, like at night, when it should get some down time. Thanks!

I usually leave my fans on all the time too. It should help keep bugs off and give your babies a constant source of fresh air.

mine run for 5 minutes and are off for 5 minutes. i bought a heavy duty timer from farmtek.com to control my fans. your fans dont need to run constantly because you are supplying them with more fresh air than then they can use at one time but it wont hurt them.

24/7 builds up stems that can hold giant colas

TTTO,
one thing to also keep in mind is will lowering or cutting off your fans hurt or
negatively affect your temps/humidity...? Just another view..
