Hi there guys, i'm not a real outdoor grower, but would definately love to look into it in the future. For now i love the security of my indoor grows.

I was just wondering, has anyone ventured to try a glass sealed greenhouse? For containment of smell, and perhaps use of a minisplit + co2 + supplemental lighting(theoretically you could do crops year round with sufficient extra lighting to adjust your daytime sunlight hours)? Or even a greenhouse with intake+exhaust using a scrubber?

Does this theory sound good at all? I'd love to build a sealed greenhouse to utilize the suns rays, and have good security measures!

Your feedback is greatly appreciated!

Sounds like the best of both worlds and I'm sure it CAN be done but has it? With all the people growing nowadays and the creativity of some of these folks, I'm sure someone has seen or done something like this,...anyone? Cool idea.

^^^^ was just thinking of the foreverflower greenhouses. I have to say i am wishing to do the same too with those units. Also beware the poly side panels dont last for ever and check the year it is good for. Your going to need a few cases of cocking to seal everywhere the panels seem is.

GH's get very high humidity, esp. at night. Commercial set ups use heat to battle humidity and often large hydro house will be heating and venting at the same time in order to get the RH in control without letting the temps get to high. Nighttime RH in a regular GH without enviro controls can reach 85%.

Also a sealed GH temp could get wicked hot during the day. That being said, on a small sacle I see no reason why you couldn't do it with an AC and a dehumidifier. Gh growing is where its at, really the best of both worlds. Good luck. CL
