Here is my second crop this year. These plants were flowered out this past spring and then put into the ground to reveg for a summer run. Some days I still have slight condensation on the inside of the GH. Besides ventalation is there another tip or trick? I have heard of having a vent strip that runs along the top ridge... anybody have any good cheap ideas. :)View attachment 737831 View attachment 737831 View attachment 737832

I'm looking at trying one of this this year.

Cool man. I am just now getting the sides of my gh back on. Framed it in somewhat and shadecloth/screening them in.

Last year I had two or three box fans running exhaust for the gh. Might do the same again or run a canfan. Also not sure if I should be introducing fresh air via can fan or box fan. I mean if your exhausting it's already pulling in fresh right?

Maybe this year i will start writing whit down.... so I know what works and what don't...

Without the fan it's just passive airflow, no forced, I will be on my thrird grow in hoop this summer as well, I used two 30 inch industrial fans from nards. One sucks in, the other blows it around an I have two of them cheap induct 6inch fans that I use for exhaust. The inline fans are on a plug in thermostat. When it hits 75 F they kick on. I'm no expert or even novice in the hoophouse. Like u I'm on a try an fail basis. All I know is if I don't have massive air movement I ran into problems. I'm looking forward to this years run, 50 gallon smart pots an roots sent me enough free shit to actualy run a full on run. Stoked for this year an like u I have some of the same beans. A lil inside info....... Get the gth crosses while u can. THEY WILL NOT DISSAPOINT!!

I planned on making some beans for myself or friends this year...well see how it goes...

I have two running right now the directional fans in the gh. When it's full of plants I put a third in. It keeps air moving very well. Probably could fly a kite in there haha.

So I have movement...then the box fans for exhaust ... so I will either run another box for intake...or use a can fan to pump fresh...

Here are some shots from 5 min ago...
