Thanks I'll have a look. In the PNW we don't have all that year round sun you do, so I'll need lights. Measuring DLI isn't complicated but I'm wondering about systems to automatically compensate for ambient levels and photoperiod hours.LOL... not making fun or anything, but simple is best IMO...
Dunno about all that, I do know solex rocks and the initial investment is far worth it in the immediate and long run.
Temps can get over 100, some say too hot, I say in the solex house bring it on. AIR CIRULATION!!! is the ticket..Take a look

That's how we roll, door will slam shut but we also have celling fans to circulate inside as well, air gets all all mixed up just like me.ambient heat will in time heat up everything including soil now most green houses use screened tables so heat is all around pots hence the reason black pots are used to help keep heat in ..
Seamaiden your right circulation and ventilation are different but if you got one end with vented fresh air in, and other end exiting air with exhaust fans in a sense its circulating air out i mean i stood outside the other end of open door on green house as exhaust fans are on you need to tie back the door as it will slam shut , and i could feel lots of air moving in meaning air is traveling mind you this is not your typical exhaust fans when your dealing with 50 " comercial grade fans there is no need for circulation one fan will make plants move like a typhoon with 2 of these bad boys any green house will kick ass View attachment 542063

How did that do for your eradication? Did it work?I have a 60" slant wall fan, does the trick.
True, kind of. Unless you have something to counter the heat in the soil. I water twice a day, one at 3-4am, another at 2-3pm. The 2-3 pm watering keeps the soil moist and cool. Doesn't matter if it's 120F in the greenhouse, just keep the roots cool. Fighting broad mites this year I got the greenhouse all the way up to 145F, no ill damage to plants. Before doing so, I watered the soil down real heavy.
Chicken man are they spider mites or are you dealing with the Borg aka broad hemp russet mites??Fucking bastard mites came on over night on some plants in GH. pretty infested. got lax, too mush other shite happening. sprayed neem seems to have killed off lots of frost still good with no contamination seen but am thinking they piss and shit so maybe no good.
Same way they always get in there ... Clones from a "friend" that didn't kniw any better.Can i ask how did they get in there in the first place ???
also you should look into this for next season
Spider mites looks like.Chicken man are they spider mites or are you dealing with the Borg aka broad hemp russet mites??
