I'm drawing up a potential plan to build a 2 story grow room ( downstairs) for the clones vegging and and mother plants; and upstairs will be a green house . make it open with deck with a plastic sheet tubular cannope' style roofing with sheet walls. protecting from the wost of the UV and rain and disguise what going on behind it..
The idea is to gain some stealth as it will be too high for prying eyes if \i get a nosy neigbour check to see whats going on. I have plenty of space on private land but natives dont respect that and will wonder through anyway. I just want something super safe..
It would be a custom built house. The down stairs to be the closed off grow room the upstairs big enough for 24 x 5 gallon pots in 3 rows. with aprox 1/2 meter between pots. I was thinking with plastic tunnel roof design and walled by plastic but not a sealed area ie. space between roof plastic and wall plastic. maybe about 1/2 m gap for air circulation
I live in the tropics with pretty much 12/12 hour days and mainly hot sunny days so \i wanted to utilize the natural sun energy and save on the lights that would otherwise be needed for the size of the planned setup during flowering
My main question is... because of the heat here. will the plastic green house effect create heat problems. although there should be plenty of gap for heat to disipate and an industrial fan moving the air around.
or...... should i use a shade cloth instead or aswell a plastic to cut down the power of the sun.
I think the goal would be to get 1/2 pound off each plant as I need to show it viable to attract investor to fund costs.
can anyone see any flaws to this idea. ? will it work?
