6-tier greenhouse. (Update: Do I have enough air exchange???)
#10798113 - 08/04/09 11:50 AM (15 years, 5 months ago) |

****For update see my newest post in this thread*****
Kinda home made.
I used the parts from 2 standard 4-tier greenhouses from e-bay and built a 6-tier greenhouse. I used painters tarp and duct tape for the plastic around it.
Building upwards saves space. 

I'm running one cool-mist piped in through the back. This cool-mist is on a timer that runs 15 minutes every hour. Is this going to be enough fresh air exchange for this huge greenhouse???
Anyone else done this before?
I'll put up pics once I have that bitch loaded with 10 trays!

I'm probably gonna order another 4-tier and build another.
I like the idea of building up and saving space.
And I hate cluttered rooms.

Thanks for noticing,I check in and out.Cant grow at the moment so I was messing with edibles for a bit and sometimes I disappear because hanging out I see what everyone else has going and I get anxious to get something up and running so I take some time off from here again

A skyscraper greenhouse would be the shit! 
I like to call my 6-tier the 'Mushroom Mansion'. 

Still don't have anything in the greenhouse though. Fucking mold.....

You see that plastic rubbermade sitting on the ground off to the left in the picture? I put my greenhouses in those when I have the cool-mists running. It's nice, it collects all the water but they also have wheels on bottom so if I need to move the greenhouse for any reason (cleaning) I can just roll it out of the way. So easy.

its a coolmist.
Actually I was going to say that placing a coolmist inside might not be as good as piping in like you said. The cool mist will need fresh air to run properly.

Is 1 cool-mist piped in through the back, only running 15 minutes every hour, going to be enough fresh air exchange???

I'm going to run a cool-mist 24/7 on the bottom shelf, and I'll also have another cool-must running 24/7 piped in through the back towards the top of the greenhouse.
Anyone else done this before?

looking good

So I've got this beast up and running now and I'm just curious if I'm getting enough fresh air exchange.
I am running 1 cool-mist piped in with hoses. And this cool-mist is only running 15 minutes every hours. Is this enough fresh air exchange for this huge 6-tier greenhouse???
