Nope I will lock the shed up tight and say a prayer like I do everything time we go away. I don't trust anyone enough to mind the grow. Also giving a non grower instructions is pointless they will just make a mistake or be careless or accidentally bring in pests or someone I don't know to show it off

I’m not too bad, the brother is growing longer than me so he usually pops in to keep an eye on things. I was looking into automating a few other bits so I can montior when I’m away but it looks like too much work lol

I have a sensorpush and the gateway. Can access the temp and humidity from the app off a data connection it’s the best piece of gear iv ever bought for the grow. Was thinking about getting an IP camera too but I’d only end up starring at it all day haha and yeah I wouldn’t want someone tapping into it

Thanks for sharing the build and grow. The shed build is very nice and glad it was done right and not just slopped together.
The grow looks great as well. I'm sure the over veg is a PITA but the yield will be worthwhile.
How big of a exhaust fan are you running in there?

Temp is 25c with 60% humidity
In my are of the world it is more about staying warm.well we had a freakish heat wave but I've insulated the shed on the walls and roof. When it was hot out side the shed was cool. I run a HP's to pick up temps. When I have the funds I'll just replace the 600 HP's with 600watts of led. The secret is blow the air around to even out the temps and make things easier for your dehumidifier. I've three fans moving air around.
I learnt a lot my first grow in the shed one of which is ipm. Have to say the nenmotoads are battling the gnats to barely one buzzing around after a month. No insecticide in flower
I was in b&q the other day and saw 5mm foil cover ridged foam under flooring for laminate. I have found my new shed floor

Your grow looks great the only issue I have is, that many large pics at once takes forever to load
Keep doing what you are doing
