@420Forever , NL#1 …auto of course. Ain’t she pretty?

First, a Happy Friday wildflower for @Mossy:

And next, the greenhouse. Not as fancy as the one by @MedCzech, but it will grow stuff.

This is what is in there now, just a few things I threw in to see how things work. Tomatoes right and left, a couple kinds of basil at the back, and a couple pepper plants on the left. The peppers have done close to nothing since transplanting, they may be duds, especially the closest one.

This is what I have done for ventilation. First, both gable ends are on automatic openers. I didn't like the design of the complete opener units, so I bought the replacement cylinders, and set it up myself. In this pic, the gable end is still closed because the sun just hit the greenhouse a few minutes ago:

And in this one, the gable end is partly open:

The second part of ventilation is that three sides roll up about a foot and a half if needed, or any amount between that and zero, depending on how much is needed:

Now all I have to do is finish setting up the automated irrigation...

Happy growing and happy Friday peeps.

I started growing September of 2019 and i was able to get 2 of the 6500k cfl spirals in store but when i went to put 2 bulbs oer fixture In January when i was trying to start perpetual plants in closet i had to go to a lightbulb depot warehouse place online to order more so i ordered 4 or 6 to be safe and only opened 1 or 2 before i stopped using them cuz got a second tent and light! Most i ever had over my 2 plants was 4 cfl lights! @420Forever and especially @Olderfart had many a cfl bulb setup! 1 still does i think!

Nope, no cfl for me, all screw in LED's with the diffuser's removed. I have only ever used CFL's for germinating seedlings, and I don't do even that any more, it is all LED's now start to finish.

Happy growing and happy Friday peeps.

Gorgeous! Thought of everything. Will your automation include electricity or gravity feed system? Really amazing, and a labor of love. My peppers are struggling as well.
