Nice! Is that a thing? I actually was already, it seemed the "right" thing to do structurally. To distribute any wind buffeting stresses n such, does that need to be glued pvc? I was leaving it floating for disassembly in the fall
Ounce of prevention! Fungal pathogens are a bigger deal then bugs around here I feel, keep things at bay until the summer drys out and they aren't as prevalent..
We have a medium sized Mondi fogger thing, it sprays a big plume of vapor about 10 feet, use that for foliar feeding and bug spraying.
Planning on using some different products for this much longer term outdoor thing
This slut was finished on Friday, but to stay cool we like to do alot of work in the evening/nighttime, so by the time we were finished there wasn't enough light for decent pictures..
Come wintertime, I'm think we just might be parking our cars in here!
Skin should go up tomorrow, We have the biggest transplant EVER coming up, but a whole room to trim back at the old place in the same timeframe... Not enough hours in the DAY!
Greenhouse holds 94 with this spacing on 3' centers, one building, one rec's worth, didn't even plan it like that!
10 bags full only, 1/2 a truckload gone.. FYI, 200gal Geopots fit damn near perfect on top of a standard pallet. I would even put them on flat ground like this, excellent drainage, and 4 people can pick up and relocate a fully loaded Geopot this way if necessary! Another truckload is coming tomorrow, and another the day after that, kinda "as we use it"...
And then it was raining? Had been a grey, overcast day the whole time, then within 5 minutes of starting to transplant it started misting turning into a steady sprinkle... serendipitous? They got "watered in" by 'ole mother nature?
Discovered these fellas taking shelter in the shade of our pallets...
My phone has a seemingly epic Macro mode.... note the fingerprint/skin wrinkles detail for scale! That was a super tiny frog... [the image is pretty damn noisy from the zoom feature though..]
Very nice grow, i like how you do it professionally, for sure,
I was wondering though if the rain falls will the feet of the pallets sink into the ground from the weight? i think them legs need some feet to stop the sinking.
The moon has been real bright, and we have been working till 11pm or so some nights. sleeping, getting up doing it all over again, no time for interwebs.
2nd truck load of dirt, allllll gone, Royal Gold is out until Monday so we managed to sneak in our trimming chores, and a drop of sleeping in for once!
