NICE! so is this a huge hobby for you or does it actually create income? I would imagine it takes a big chunk of time in upkeep.

-J

just a hobby no real income. I have it fine tuned to where I dont have to do much. everything is automated

greenhouse cover
 

are you happy with the light you get coming through the polycarbonate panels? or do you think its better to go with a film type of covering? I am in the process of building mine and most of what I see is film...

Thanks

Excellent pics,

For the last few weeks whenever I get tired or bummed out about something going wrong with my construction, I swing by here and suddenly I feel like going out and working again.

wtb well the light seems ok to me and in the past ihave actually used shade cloth but i am thinking about not doing it this summer unless my cooling system decides not to keep up. Has anyone actually done a study on the difference. someone give me a grant and i will tell all.;) raaden you are the man. I cant wait to see your settup in person. someone who has actually thought this out and done a fine job at doing that:D
