Welcome to my first organic auto greenhouse grow

Hi all, new to here and ready for tips and tricks. Normally grow photos but this year I decided to give my hand a try at autos. Figured I can get two cycles in the season. Anyways here’s some snap shots, the girls consist of 9 diesel berry and 8 Bruce banner. The back 5 are diesel berry that I got out a bit early in the season but then we got a cold snap and I had to throw the space heater in so I held back on the other ladies for two more weeks. Set up the scrog yesterday because the first 5 are about to hit the stretch and I’ll start tucking like a bastard soon. Let me know what you think. Also I’ve got some veggies and strawberries going for the little one, seeing how they like the super soil.
Lights are running 16/8 sort of, 6am-11, 4:30-10. Direct sun from 10:30-4:30. Compensate for morning and evening shade from trees in the backyard. Couple 80w LED wall packs throwing light down and 3 20w tubes for the veggie side but they still add to the girls. Two intake fans one exhaust for a semi positive pressure minus very small leaks. One oscillating fan to give everyone movement. Large opening make shift screened in window for the hot days. Give me some feedback and I’ll add updates as I go

That is such a great build you did. I’ve been dreaming of doing a hybrid greenhouse for a while but I don’t have the outdoor space for it.

How deep is that going? I feel like I would have to crawl on top of the soil to access the back plants for trimming.

none the less, cool set up.

5 ft deep, it’s a bit of a pain yeah but while the fronts were small I could drop the front two ties and access the back. They weren’t the easiest to train, I’ll do an update photo

Also, if you are thinking about doing one rough cost of that set up was about 1400 CAD with inflated everything during Covid bullshit

That’s painful but all said n done you did it well and still cost way less than a prebuilt greenhouse.

I stopped keeping track of the money spent on my room build out. I tend to be at a hardware store every other day buying something random I didn’t think I would need.
