Thats pretty cool, SM. lol
What type of "carbs" are you talking about?

Yeah burning a propane heater is gonna make your humidity spike if you dont vent the GH first thing in the morning. Also I cover the GH to induce flowering early so I can chop on OCT 1st. On the western slope shit gets crazy in October. Also before I build a GH I always get a bunch of 55 gallon barrels and bury them around the GH. Also I build the floor from horse shit and dig trenches for the plants so that the decomposing horse poo helps to keep the root zone temps higher. This also helps keep the temp in the entire gh higher.
Golden rule... DONT CHOP EARLY!!!
Even some indoor growers seem to think some plants are done in 45-50 days, just no way is a plant at 45 days going to be as tasty or wastey as a 70 plus day finish....
Get your loop out, learn what to look for, can take sample tester nugs also as you go and see the difference patience makes...
Greenhouse finishing with Solex seems to take longer to finish, wondering if its the Solex material or do greenhouses take longer in general to finish, anybody know?
And also Kolah if you decide on Solex for next yr., lemme know, can get a farm price for you, save a few $$$, worth the investment sooner than later, really think you would like, will last 15 years awesome for your altitude, your pretty high up there, and will be even higher after harvest, good to see you enjoying, thanks for sharing, we all learn something...
Get your self some of them bubble bags for trim, suggest using dry ice method you soon will be set.. CM
Yeah CM, the pros and cons of outdoor growing in Colorado, in a nutshell. The only thing you can do is try to keep improving but Mother Nature always bats last.
I plan to build a second greenhouse next spring...and will definitely design it with a cold sink and insulated north wall.
This years investment:
Greenhouse: $800
3 clones: $60
bunch of seeds: $75
soil: $110
nutes: $60
5 gallon buckets: $40
ventless propane heater: $150
propane: $ 100-150 (estimated)
approx $1500 clams.
I agree Bud. What's the going price for an good oz of weed here in CO ? $300-350?
If I get 2 pounds of decent smoke out of my first attempt at growing I have no complaints..plus I totally love growing my own. Cheers and beers.
