Honestly IMO a greenhouse will still allow for insects pm spores and the usual problems that can arise outside. Dig some nice big 3x3 or 4x4 holes in a full sun spot and away ya go. Don't get me wrong greenhouses are good but they are not 100% controlled environment either. Greenhouses are good for security purposes in semi residential areas but some nasty backwoods hiking can sometimes be a better deterrent.
Greenhouses seem key in areas with bad weather like hail, heavy rain, string wind and early winters. Also like said above, better for security and animals. I'm no expert, just a personal grower, but here in the mountains of CO its pretty much required to do outdoor.
Or get an excavator and build a wallipini it's a greenhouse sunk 5 or so feet deep so just the roof is above ground. Helps keep it at 50 degrees all winter, also less noticible than a full structure.
Light deprivation greenhouse.
Good luck any other way if your north of Eugene.
Pm/bud rot are hard to fight.
I'm there also.
Honestly, you will get PM no matter what when the rains hit.
Get a greenhouse and black it out 12 hours of the day. This way you can get one harvest in early. Another late when things usually finish.
Also what strains are you running outside? Hopefully some fast finishing indicas.
The morning dew sure is a bitch
Especially when the clouds won't burn until 2 or 3
Someone at one of my hydro stores recommended a foliar that you can supposedly use early in flower that's supposed to help all the way through finish.
Personally I had more trouble with bud rot than PM
Do it, GH will help as will added ventilation and like smokey said you can get them going early with light dep just keep an eye on them and if the mold gets out of control remember that an early harvest is better than a harvest that goes straight in the trashWhat are your thoughts about even bothering to grow outdoors up there? I have no troubles with growing indoors, I just wanted to do an outdoor grow for fun.
