Anyone growing in a greenhouse? Advice?

What's happening fellow growers!

I'm looking to set up a 10 x 13 vivosun greenhouse. My plants are getting pretty big on my deck and I'm trying to limit prying eyes.

I'm concerned that the greenhouse may need extra maintenance in proving the right climate for the plants. I.e. humidity may get too high. Temps may get to high. Not adequate airflow, reduction in the sun's power...etc. are these things the case or have you found the greenhouses to work pretty well?

Any tips before I have at it? Any advice appreciated and welcomed.

I agree with the other posters that humidity will be your biggest obstacle, especially as buds mature and temperatures cool. But the solution for humidity and heat is air movement I think its do able if:

1. You live in an area with a relatively low RH during your grow season. If not maybe invest in a dehumidifier. I have no problems with this because my average RH is only 34% in October.


2. Roll the door up on one side and place a large fan (think shop fan) on the other side. If "prying eyes" wont let you do this you will need to place some sort of exhaust fan on the top to get humid hot air out. 24 hr air movement is key.


3. Have fans circulating your air inside the greenhouse as well

4. Careful inspection for bud rot.

Good luck!
