LEAN-TO GREENHOUSE
11 feet long
5 1/2 feet high
2 feet wide.
*coco 3 gallon, coco nutes + bud nute
*water from machines (6 buckets every four days)
five hours of sun - plastic cuts light transmission by 20% at least (i'm guessing).
PROBLEMS:
powdery mildew on bubba and skywalker due to watering at night with the exhaust turned down - treating it with Organicide and daytime showers
PLANTS:
ten plants, one bubba, one skywalker, and eight ladies of mixed origin (pnc indicas mixed due to stress last grow, but all have come up female, hope none herm on me)
EXHAUST:
4" vortex on a small carbon filter in an external air box (trash can), passive intake is furnace filter at opposite end (controls odor very well)
taped into a hole at the the other end of the greenhouse - odor is controlled 95% except when i open it up to water the girls.
CHICKEN WIRE
i used chicken wire to add a tiny bit of security, but also to let me screen the plants against the back, which i've done just to the main stalks, bending them over at the top to keep them from hitting the ceiling.
PLASTIC
4 mil tarp walmart
clear shower curtain top
FRAME
painted wood and brackets for strength
staple gun for poultry screening and plastic
front folds down partially for access

Looks good, cool idea. I wish I could put something like that on the side of my house.

I went and looked at the buds on one of the plants with powdery mildew real close and saw brown mold in most of them, and no way to pick out just those parts, so ended up half-way stripping my bubba. tossed the waste into a bucket of water and will do a water wash, then extract oil i hope.fu$^@ isht, should'a put fans in there sooner - should'a bought a six inch vortex instead of a 4"
