RIP Sherbet plants 1 & 2...

Well today is not going well for the two Sherbet plants. I walked in and it was worse. It was in every branch. So to protect the other plants that just started flowering, the Sherbet had to go. I sprayed them with alcohol, cut them and washed them in a strong potassium bicarbonate bath. Then...

This is super flexible stuff. There are three ten foot sections per hoop and that gave us a ten foot tall arc. The fittings are just straight coupler fittings, and there are 2 per hoop. They are right next to the second perlin. Putting a coupler of any type at the peak would cause a weak...

Yep. Get some potassium bicarbonate or something along those lines.

Yeah, used 4x4 posts and made it just fine. I was late getting them in. I was almost in the same boat but looked out the window in time. After putting in the first post I decided to install another and it made it through the rest of the winter just fine. I did also go out and knock the snow down...

No, it says it's 40. We tried regular pvc but it is too stiff. And yes there are extraction fans on each end. There's also several fans for air circulation inside. I screened the roll up sides and ends with chicken wire and 4 foot wide window screen. Then I use 4 foot wide landscaping fabric...

I should also note that it made it through the deracho last August and all the other severe storms since then just fine.

You don't remember brother? The same one as you. LOL It's been through one winter so far. In the winter it is necessary (at least here in Illinois) to put a post or two up under the center perlin to support the snow load. The IRAC membrane has a 4 year warranty too. Heck you are close enough to...

I almost forgot, look into Farm Plastic Supply for the membrane, lock channel and wiggle wire. They have great prices and amazing customer service. The hoops I made with 1.5 inch cellular core DWV PVC pipe and long couplers. They are set into and bolted through 2 inch pvc stakes that are around...

Errrggggg! I hate admitting this but bud rot has entered the equation... i've had to remove several nice buds including the top of the first one in the door. And what really sucks is that I have been treating these plants their entire lives. I have upped my game and added a biological called...

My hoop house is 16x24x10 and cost less than $1000.00 to build. Compared with the price of the kit it would leave a large chunk of change to use for other things. You're going to need electricity to run the fans and you will need several of those. Then there's the soil to purchase and/or build...

I didn't harvest my last two plants until the beginning of December last year. They both came out fine. I did have to heat the hoop house near the end though. And I ran a big dehumidifer just to help out a little. Not sure how it would work out in the high desert climate, as I'm in Illinois. I...

Congrats!

#VIVOSUN One more for the road! I.G.CUSH started indoors flowered, harvested and then revegged using Vivosun equipment, then finished a second time in the hoop house known as, "Parts Unknown!" It was one of the plants from the first post I put on this thread.

I like to spray in the evening.

That's not true. Don't flush, Flushing is for toilets.

I did.

Eggshell white paint finish. Vs. Gloss or flat white.

I built one, works great for small and medium sized buds but the bigguns get the hand trimming. It has to be the right size and moisture content bud to work right.

Eggshell. Easier to clean and causes good light diffusion.
