Naughty.Psychonaut Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 That's one sexy hothouse As with most things I do, I DIY mine, she's about 5 years old now. UV protected polyprop, will last forever as most poly materials turn yellow and change the light filtration or gets brittle with age. I don't grow weed in mine, I keep my sacred rare cacti collection in there Notice the roof, probably the biggest factor to keeping it cool in summer. Structure is stainless steel industrial wire channels, the tables are the same material but wiring brackets they use in factories. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the humidity drop during the day heavily? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really all that much, I think it's the placement. Our yard is on a slight slant and that's the lowest corner of the yard so the soil stays moist and the area is naturally humid, also got the house built in the corner there with 2 walls next to it and the house is about a meter away from it, you can kinda see it in the second photo, building with the beams on is the house. So it's a "dank" corner hahah never gets hit with sun all around, but when I do get low humidity in there it's still 3 to 5% higher than outside of it and the cacti want low humidity. Still in the 20% range in there, though. Colder, slower, higher humidity months I pump that big metal fan. The water pipes run along the roof, the deep corener side got a little fern collection, got misters on a timer so if I need to raise humidity I can, but I never need to. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK-47 Gold Arabesque Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 DIY builds are always the coolest to look at, as well as greenhouses in general. I can imagine its such a nice environment to walk into and keep busy, away from everything else. Much respect Hoping to do my own greenhouse in the future. This is quite a long grow diary, so I couldn't find the info, but do you put any nutrients into your drip feed setup you have here? Would you say mulch is worth it in an indoor environment, to retain moisture? Or not really necessary? Looking forward to further updates! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello bud, I do not, just plain water in the res, I water in any feeds I feel that the plants may need every week or so. Ill usually just do microbes, molasses or fish, enzymes , traceminerals, humics and fulvics sometimes some micronized kelp etc. Then every month or so I top dress bonemeal, malted barley seed meal, soft rock phos, gypsum, kelpmeal, rock dusts etc. Mixed with worm casting and spread handfulls over the mulch. By the time I add another top dress, the top of the soil is somewhat exposed again, So ill add more mulch over the top-dress to get the area more active with the microbes. Mulch is really effective when you are reliant solely on microbes to feed the plant. Mulch definitely helps with water retention, but people think mulch gives you gnats. So its really up to you and your experience with it. Generally any unwanted pests are a result of unbalanced nutrients supply and over watering. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORGANinc. Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 This is was on Wednesday, so we close to week 10 now. Need to get another week or 2 out of them, which I think they can survive out of these Pmwoods, rain for now but some sun ahead Before defol was on the 17th, weather is definitely keeping me in my toes, I could say this is the worst sort of situations to grow in and without extraction, but it has not gone too badly. touch wood summer isn’t absolutely ridiculous, really want to grow some autos 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
