Plans come flower? Looks like you'll have buds busting out of the roof!
canopy/lst/hst. Trust me this was no picinic getting the ins an outs of the hoop house. Lots of trial an error. I have other pull string on my trellis an netting to keep down. Over the next few weeks in fills out on top an I go in one more time for a foliage trim. THE BIGGEST ISSUE I HAVE. Is keeping humidity above 50% from 11am to 4pm, during those hours my humidifier runs non stop. Then after 4 ish I'm back to the 60's. Thrivin an survivin in the North

Not sure how you can get by 10 days without watering.
thinks of it like this, I did 3x3 holes an double line with chicken wire. All the soil I fill in the holes naturally holds water, peat, etc, now its surrounded by regular soil. It hold it's moisture an extreme well. Compacted in. I stuff my middle finger next to stump, if it's even the slightest damp feeling I don't touch it, not one or two knuckles but whole thing. Idk it always works for me jus like this soil an tea. I don't touch nothing that comes in a bottle. KEEP EM, this is still my web an fugus 9 days later. Not to be funny or random but if u seen what I do or how i grow inside, u would be a lil perplexed as well. 90F 80% RH an NO PROBLEMS, however i do grow in a Rubbermaid tote an a steel tool cabinet, I read an i read, I watch, an I ask lots of questions. Garble em up an spit out my own rendidtion, sometimes good an lots of time I fail. I guess I'm still looking for Schrodinger's cat.....

imo better to just cut them down in half, everything will get locked down and just tiny shoots will come through the net, plus if its that humid it'll just get all matted together and suffocate the plants i'd recommend more training/topping next time in that space

You run a humidifier all day but only water every 3 weeks ?
where does it say I run a humidifier ALL DAY? IT DOESNT. Please take care when reading. It runs from 11- 4ish

I'm going to respectfully decline on cutting my plants in half, thanks.

Is the greenhouse to hide them from the public or to be a controlled environment.? Id just pop the greenhouse off if it keeps stretching and just spread the foliage out.
