northeast greenhouse 2015 grow

[tech1234]

43*N non-med state, very rural farm land, LEO not friendly

Strains- northern lights, K.C. 33, Mk ultra, G13, Blue chesse, Armageddon.

popped 30 seeds, after duds and males I am down to 14. Of those I will take the best 8. Best 6 go into 65gals smarties and 2 into 20gals.

(20gals will either be given to a friend or put outside elsewhere once the 6 - 65gals need the space)

Greenhouse in pics is just temporary because the main GH is not close enough to a power source for the early season heat.

Main GH is 16'x18'. (6) 6'x6' spaces with a 4' walking path down the middle

I vegged seedlings under t8's and regret it. they are all a little leggy, although they are filling out some now that they are getting some sun. What do you guys think? Leave them be or do some topping and/or training?

The main GH has 8' walls and 14' peak height... at this rate, and once they hit full sun all day in the main GH, I could see them hitting the top!

top'em if height is an issue or train them by bending them over ( tie down)

got the 65s' filled with a custom blend of FF and just chilling until the weather gets a tad warmer here... girls are filling out nicely

gave the G.H. a whitewash with 1:20 ratio white latex paint to water to reduce temps. the girls love it. Here are some pics from this week. let me know what you think. I think they are killing it!

I put them up on plastic lattice and xps foam blocking to avoid drainage problems and to let the roots that came through the smart pots air prune. heres some more pics

update: pics from july 3rd

Heat has been an issue. I ended up having to do a white wash on the poly cover to reduce temps. (latex paint/water mix) it really helped the temps but has definitely cut the available light to the plants. I think next year I will build a quick pvc frame and only have the cover on at the beginning of the season for temps and the end of the season for rain/temps...

Really nice DIY greenhouse. How do you keep the roof vent open or is it permanently open?

Those smaller grey fabric pots don't look like Smart brand. They look like the ones I buy from Ruth's Tree Farm.
