Whats up everyone, I just put an offer on a off grid house.
Its been a long time coming and looks like we are going to get it. 5.25 acres of land, completely off grid, has a bank of 24 125w solar panels and backup generator.
Anyway... Im thinking theres plenty of room for a greenhouse and Ild love to utilize the sun rather then lights, and unless Im planning on adding another solar array (which I may do) the electric is a little shy of running anything over 1K for flowering. Although there is a 10 car garage with 60 amp breakers ran and I have no idea what Im going to do with it lol. In addition, theres two other outbuildings both with electric at 10x15'.
As far as the greenhouse goes though ..... My question is this, how do you guys handle odor control?? I have 5 acres, there are neighbors on two of the adjoining lots. Granted, they are at a minimum several hundred yards away with trees inbetween but Im curious if the odor would be to strong still or wander to much?
Whats your guys take on odor control? How do you handle it? Do you even worry about it or are all of you on 200 acre plots lol?? I see lots of greenhouses in urban backyards with people growing... so Im sure someone is doing something about odor.
Secondly, I would want to use an opaque greenhouse so its not easily visible inside. However, Im wondering if the diffused light is sufficient for flowering? Im assuming it is, but am not entirely certain.
Last but not least ... cooling... how do greenhouses heat up? How do you handle cooling? If I was to try and do some form of odor control, that means you need the greenhouse sealed up .... which means its going to heat up. How do you handle all that??
Thanks so much guys in advance for any input.
