Improving Under Canopy Air Flow

Despite the side venting and fans running it seemed like the leaves were creating a restricted air flow around the plant. This could be in part due to the plastic end walls of the structure, so a quick addition of a box fan was added to see if it helps.

There does seems to be improved air flow which is important for general cooling, carbon dioxide refreshing, and reduced moisture build-up. These leaves are quite tall so the box fan does work but carpet drying style fans may be more efficient so these will be considered as a potential future improvement.
