Very nice. Cool that you did this. I would be interested in your observed differences between this plant and one of the first flowered plants.

It actually went into week 2/3 of flower then realized it was summer and started to reveg. I do plan to give what your mentioning a try over this winter and hopefully flower it a 2nd time come spring. I think @Mohican has revegg ed a fully flowered plant 3 times if my memory is right.

Could you please tell me the make and model of this greenhouse? I really like it and think it would be a good fit for my style of growing.

Yes, Home depot sells it, online only: http://www.homedepot.com/p/FlowerHouse-Conservatory-8-ft-x-8-ft-Pop-Up-Greenhouse-FHCV900/100377430

Basically a glorified tent, supported by 10 extra heavy duty tent poles, and covered with clear PVC.

A friend noted that it seems like it was made for covering one very large outdoor girl who lives right in the ground. It is light enough for 2 adults to lift up and move over an existing plant. I added this late in the season after panicking a bit about how late my huge, beautiful Jack Herer may finish.

It is not water tight: the seams leak and let water run down interior walls. But I have a rain-fly from a 3-person tent - perfect size - which is added on very wet days, and it completely solves that.

It will stand up to 45mph winds (I saw it do so) with all the ropes & stakes attached properly.

I don't know how sturdy they are compared to this unit, but Google "Amazon Strong Camel greenhouse" and check out all the affordable options. Beats the hell out of $300 for a small, portable unit for temporary "rain coat" purposes. They have several models and sizes and you can view all kinds of other models and brands once you start looking on one page.

Definitely, the pop-up greenhouse is not the ideal, best-made product IMO. There are better options. My problem was I needed a 10' peak to accommodate my ridicustretch, which was proving hard to find.
