Local I love the straw everywhere bro..you can see how much brighter it makes things in the pic you posted of your patch. AAA bro. Good job! That is my next project after I button up my fence and plug my ladies in..
Anyone have any issues with rodents (rats/mice) nesting in or otherwise being attracted to the straw on the ground? How about on the pot?
I noticed all the cool kids were doing it, so I did too, but then thought about pest attraction and Google seems to think it will attract mice/rats?
for those of you guys running supplemental light what kind of bulbs are you going with? Im going with 13 watt daylight just wonderin what everyone else is using
If you just went with EGS , Get a 20 ft trailer and go pick it up yourself.
Is anyone else having gopher problems? I'm about to build my first mounds... been using smartpots...What are you guys using under your mounds against these gophers? Thanks
They only quoted me 400 for a 2.5 hour delivery, I took the deal. Thanks for the heads up on Envirotech, the greenhouse is super quality. Their receptionist/sales person was very nice and helpful as well. She made an appointment with me since I was driving 2.5 hours to check things out. Got there at 10 and didn't leave until 2, but she helped with all my stupid questions. I also have an approved set of building plans that I plan on submitting next week.
Heres what I came up with. I used 6' x 1.5' 1/4" hardware cloth to make a basket, and then zip tied another piece thats 2'x2' on the bottom. I'll but it in the mound with the top two inches above the soil line, and transplant into the basket.

That's fucked up. I ordered from them in march and still don't have my plans! My deliveries have had short or damaged pieces on every one!
I remember seeing a 3'x25' roll of that stuff for about $50 at Home Depot the other day, IIRC. Are there much cheaper places to get larger rolls?
