i do this at home with out spending a ton of cash, it takes about 1 to 3 minuets manualy. lazy people make lazy weed.......
$483how much is tht greenhouse and where would i get it?
There are a few companies out there with auto light dep contraptions. I haven't seen one at a reasonable price yet. I saw the auto excel at sylvandales. Way too small and expensive. They need to make one 34x96 for $15k-25k and people would be all over them. I'm sure somebody will figure it out. Until then I'm pulling it myself.
Yes it has to Black it out completely...No light leaks.Hey man. Does the tarp have to fully black out the greenhouse? I would think it would be difficult to drap a hoop house with a tarp and get it perfectly over the akwardly shaped greenhouse. But the moon shines plants that live doors with light anyways...thoughts would be appreciated.

the moon light is ok..;)
Two layers of black plastic is required from my experience.6mil plastic sheeting, the 20' wide rolls specifically... durable enough to last the entire season. $100 or so a roll, and that will last for a long time if you have a smaller greenhouse

Not sure what you mean..But yeah, that's the Idea..start a light dep. in late march..How does your transition from depo to regular outdoors go? I'm up in Redding and I was thinking about putting them outside in late March in order to harvest before planting outdoors in June.
or two layers of 6ml;)I have done several Light Deps..Not hard really.
Get one of these...and pull some 10 ml black plastic over it each evening

I've seen the Forever Flowering, and while very good, it's also very expensive. Far too expensive to make it a viable option for many. I've asked my husband to put his head to creating an automated covering system for a hoop-house scenario. Garage-door opener is where it starts.Heres one more for you,these are the shit for light dep..
