Hey Planter peeps!

If I have a ceiling fan running 24 hours a day in my 10x10 home office, should I be marking yes to the near ventilation question for all of my plants?

TYIA!

How much air movement does the fan create near your plants? I have a similar sized plant space with a ceiling fan going 24/7 as well. I can't feel any air movement near the plants so I've marked them as 'no.'

Since it's a small room, there is noticable air movement. Not as much as a HVAC vent when on... More like a 24/7 noticable draft

Oh wow, well my fan is also very old so probably not moving nearly as fast as yours lol  
If there is a noticeable draft, I would mark yes for the plants. It'll help you get the most accurate watering schedule!
