Hey guys, i built me a greenhouse yesterday. I was wondering what brand and clarity you others use. Im growing autos year round so i want it to be able to withstand heavy rain (my location gets tons) also heavy wind? Sent from my SM-G935V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Looking good, the greenhouse is nice too.. Lol I use a Humboldt made light depo cold frame that's 20' wide and 40' long it works great for me and I can pull 3 harvests a year out of it. I'm getting close to running out of room so in the spring I plan on adding a second one. I have 10 4' x 8' raised beds and automated auto darkening shade cover. I'm currently working on automated watering. I run og fire which is mold and powdery mildew resistentnt. It's also a heavy yielder. I tried gg#4 but the PM was out of control here in our wet Humboldt climate. Keep up the good work...
Humboldt guy here too. Yea being on the coast is a huge mold problem. I got humboldt seed company seeds (not organization the fake Spain one) they are supposedly resistant to mold. We will see though. Sent from my SM-G900R4 using Tapatalk
There are motors on the greenhouse that turn on and pull a black tarp over the entire greenhouse to keep it dark just like indoor lights would . You can also do it manual it just has to be done every day. My grammar might be a little bad this morning it's 5 am and I just took my first bong hit of og Fire which I normally don't do until after work but I'm off today. Lol I'm fairly new with the greenhouse but so far it's been great. Just most importantly find a quick flower strain like og or blue dream whisk will finish flowering in less than 60 days. I use only organic fertilizer and soil in there too. I'm not totally organic I just figure most of the chemicals used in grow firtilizers are unregulated and my good friend works for fox farm. Back to the auto darkening told ya it's the og typing now lol. The motorized equipment is about 2000 on top of the greenhouse price, but in my opinion it's worth it. It's only 2 lbs to pay for it! I can pull 20 out of mine every 3 months and it's not over crowded. Also when you auto darken you can control the height or your plants thell grow 30 to 50% after you cut the light to 12/12 . I usually veg for 2 to 3 weeks in February with supplemental lights and the other two times in April and July I don't need them. And the July run doesn't even use the auto darkening controls. Good luck any other questions let me know I'm sure if I can't answer them someone on this site can.
Hay Sade glad to hear from another Humboldt guy. The pressures on around here this year people are going crazy. I was out hwy 36 yesterday and passed at least 20 truck and trailer loads of supplies heading out. I love it this is the best place on earth in my opinion. What strain of seeds did you get? Or did I miss that in my blazed state? Lol I'm off work today and plan on cutting down my last indoor run of the year. It's gg4 and og Fire with a few tangerine kush mixed in. It looks awesome so frosty the GG is some of the best I have ever grown. One more bong hit and it's off to work.
Yea lol. Couple of them live next to me and have flat beds full of fox farm soil. Definitely want to step my indoor up. Sent from my SM-G900R4 using Tapatalk
How do autos do in greenhouses? I dont have the cash for all that Sent from my SM-G935V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Also what strain you grow and what kind of soil for 20 lbs every 3 months ? Thats a shit load Sent from my SM-G935V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
I grow blue dream and og Fire in the green house. I have only been at it for 1 cycle last fall and the one I just finished up so its hard to put an exact number on it. I pulled 19 last fall and I'm not sure yet about this time but it looks really good. I've been an indoor guy for 20 years but the cost is starting to outweigh the pay. My electric bill went up from around 400 10 years ago to over 2000 a month now. I just finished my last indoor run for a while. The electric company can suck it now. Lol
They bitch more out here about using the water for weed plants. Let's Smoke About It...... Sade's outdoor Bigfoot territory grow
Ya my bill is a little high and were on solar too to make it worse I only pay once a year in August last year we were just under 20000 for the year. I feel like I need a guard to deliver the payment to pge. I guess these high bills are common here in Humboldt I have friends that are over 10000 a month. They have to put up a 15000 deposit because pge said there high risk. Lol how's your green house coming? Kind of risky in that state. I lived in Bermingham for a year back in the 90's and they would hang you for a pot seed. Lol I'm sure times have changed a bit scince then.
What are the prices around you of top shelf, mid , and low grade? Sent from my SM-G935V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Most indoor top grade goes for 1800 to 2300 right now as for our door I have heard of as low as 800 this year and as high as1800 for good green house light dep. I give a lot of mine away to friends that really need it. I feel like I have plenty to share and help out who I can. How about in your area? Maybe worth a road trip lol I had a friend a few years ago that got busted in Arkansas in an air plane with 200 lbs and he's still in jail. I don't normally leave Humboldt with more than a 1/4 pound. I feel pretty safe here with my medical card.
Shit dude. Thats worth a trip. Low grade $5/g, mid $8-10, and high grade $25/g or 3500 a p Sent from my SM-G935V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Wow that's like prices here 10 years ago. You need to do it up girl. You could make a killing. Wish I was closer but it would take days to drive that far. I have a pretty good outlet here at a local medical dispensary. There just really picky but seem to like my stuff. Is your greenhouse going now or still in progress? You should be able to pull a few lbs out every 3 months if you work it right.
Im a dude. Haha. Thats my girlfriend. It is up and just waiting to sprout. How do you germ your seeds? Sent from my SM-G935V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
I personall use clones only because there faster and more reliable. I have used seeds in the past by germinating them in a paper towel with a little b1 about a table spoon per qt of water. I have a pretty good stick of seeds if you want I can mail some? Most of the time the seeds need to grow for about 30 days before they can be flowered in order to mature. My neighbor breeds plants for seed and sells them too the clubs here in Cali . I have quite a few on hand but just haven't used them in about a year. I keep them in the refrigerator and they last for years. I have had some of my biggest bud off seed plants but have also had they hermi out and seed a whole indoor run. I used to order from attitude seed bank but started having trouble losing them in shipping. Do you mail order them or get them local
