Yes

 

This is what I want to do, but not with a powered fan, using a whirlybird.

Hi,

 

I'm thinking just luevres(*Sp), then if it needs to be powered, just getting a couple of solar power fans the size of computer fans. 

 

If you want tips on air circulation, talk to Shaz.

 

Also, how do I open the 3d pdf?

 

Cheers,

Ah, got it. Need to actually use reader.

 

Awesome work!

[Adam]

By the looks of it, I won't need it for temperature control, It will be more humidity.

Radam,

 

This is the one I said is starting to wilt, it will be getting the chop hard.

 

 

 

A few of the ones I started pruning back already

 

1x fully pruned back Capsicum plant.

[Adam]

Wow, okay. Maybe it was just the cold that has caused mine to wilt. How do you know how far back to prune???

[skillionaire]

Just go for it.

Otherwise they will go woody and not only be less efficient but also less attractive.

[Adam]

I guess I'm just paranoid if taking all the leaves off!

[B4TT]

They just got dormant for the winter.

 

Adam, just take a guess, just lob the fuckers back

[skillionaire]

You'll be fine mate, hack away. 

[Adam]

Will hack soon will have to cut my losses on the un ripened fruits I think! There's probably close to 50 on them still!

[B4TT]

Yeah I will be doing that Radam, better of. More chance of them surviving winter

[Adam]

Will give me room to try and grow some tomatoes in the greenhouse over winter!

Got some good plans coming up. Build another 1 or 2 green houses, and start growing some veg!!

[B4TT]

Really reckon you can get them growing over winter Radam? be pretty impressed if you can! and jealous as.

[Adam]

I have a plant that was attacked by bugs and was really struggling but it's started to come back!

I've popped it in the greenhouse to see if it can survive the winter. I think as long as there's no frost hitting it it should be fine. Google seems to think you can grow them year round!

What about if you introduced artificial lighting / heat? 

[Adam]

I'd say that would definitely make it possible. I'm looking to not spend money on it though

[Shaz]

Just get a CFL light, bung it in an old lamp and use a carbord box as the "greenhouse"
