    Designing budget greenhouses (light assist) for 2 crops a year in Maine!

    ya but honestly 20ft wide is bigger than i want, id like to keep them under 12ft wide just tall enough to fit my tractor (its a bigass tractor lol) and not overly wide so i can run 4 of them along side each other with the space i have on the property. 20 footers would take up twice the width if...

    Designing budget greenhouses (light assist) for 2 crops a year in Maine!

    it will be a full blown green house using 1-3/8 top rail bent hoops, probably 10-12ft high in the center. i havent decided on heat source yet. but im thinking either cheap pellet stove, propane or even kerosene heaters direct vented.

    Designing budget greenhouses (light assist) for 2 crops a year in Maine!

    ive been recently mulling over design and buildout parameters for greenhouses on our small property to max out my caregiver plant counts (78 flowering plants). the idea would be to use a hoop bender jig and make some 12ft-16ft wide hoop houses using double inflated poly coverings for insulation...

    When do YOU start counting flower days

    I don't do auto flowers so I don't know how to help with timing and all but growing in coco with a plant that size it needs a couple more weeks to veg in that size pot. In coco I never flip to flower until they are root bound in their pot and getting multifeedings per day.

    When do YOU start counting flower days

    You're growing in coco. It's a soiless medium and should be treated as a hydroponic setup. That's a big ass pot with a little plant. You need some dry cycles to get the plant root bound before multifeeding

    Jack's is typically 50 bucks delivered for 25lbs. This stuff here is 550 bucks for 25 lbs. Jack's hydroponic is tried and true for cannabis production. What does this stuff offer at 10 times the cost? Add in haifa or yara Calcinit in 50lb bags for 30 bucks and jack's is more like 15-20 times...

    can you use ozone generators with an airstone in the res of a recirculating system?

    I would be a little worried about sending micro bubbles of of O3 down my feed tubing. You could setup a standalone recirc pump and bypass to inject O3 for an hour per day during a long stretch of no feed time. This would allow it to dissipate and might have much less water issues

    can you use ozone generators with an airstone in the res of a recirculating system?

    I was feeding drip to waste. Used a submersible pump to distribute O3 it had a riser and a Venturi on it that recirculated the feed stock. It was not the delivery pump.

    I use a Venturi and pump and pull ozone from an ozone genny

    can you use ozone generators with an airstone in the res of a recirculating system?

    Ozone should be perfectly fine in the res. Just make sure you don't allow it to build up in the grow room in any concentration. Ozone will kill your plants if it builds up in a sealed room.
