Fan On Sprouts...??? does it help>

i have 5 new-ish sprouts...they are pritty big for how old they are..i think like a week, and they already have there 3rd set of leaves coming in.

anyways, inside of my "vegg box" i have the 5 sprouts under 2 26w cfls.
the temp is fine right now, it could be cooler and not hurt them at all. i installed a computer fan into the back of the Vegg Box...and i planned on turning it on, once the plants are bigger,

sooo is it ok to have the FAN ON NOW? will it hurt my new sprouts to run a fan on them. ( i kno fans make plants stronger, but r they too young still)
if i should have the fan running, then how long do i keep the fan on? always? every other day?? what?
any help is greatly appriciated*.

p.s i think i will post a pic of the seedlings, and fan...i got to go take picture,so it will be up in a few min's....and a cigg break.
 
I had a fan on mine since the day they showed...start it pointing up above them to move the heat from the tops of there heads then lower it as they get bigger

also i have my fan on the same time as the light so evey thing comes on at once and evey thing goes off at once

i like to let my plants rest when the lights are off....after all thats when they do most the growing so i dont have the fan on or the Extractor fan
 
this is the pics of my 5 sprouts....and a not so good clone....and the fan in the back ground.
also when i went up to take these pics...i relized one of my cfl's had burnt out...boooo looks like another trip to home depot....

thanks for the info...so it will help them, if i turn the fan on???
 
so your sure that plants can get like "wind burn" or something... i just really dont want to screw up my sprouts. :)
