Panda Film for light dep?

[zest]

Quick question for you guys. I'm running a 20x48 greenhouse this summer and was wondering what film you guys think I should use for light dep? Ive seen all kinds of different materials and I'm running low on cash so was wondering if panda film would be sufficient enough for 1 season?

yes...

One thing I have wondered on this subject.. Will panda plastic breathe enough? To prevent high humidity that could potentially cause mold issues? Or how do you all combat that?

fans and air

As far as i understand panda is 5mm polyethylene. The same as vapour barrier in a house (except house stuff is translucent).

A 20 x 48 green house and you're asking the most basic of questions? And using terms like "light dep", never posted here before? Something is a bit "off" here.

hehehe, that's what I was gathering.

OP- I have used heavy duty tarps (Home Depot)
Usually I double them up, I like to keep an exhaust fan going for mine also.
Good luck on your light dep, post some pics of the journey

I think the black visqueen cost less than panda film ?

I am going to be using the regular 6 mil black stuff from home depot. I have seen a grow on another site where he did a light dep in a regular camping tent.
