Region: Mexico Zinnias
This is my second "grow house"-hoping to finish construction this week. I hope to build a total of 5 of these (approx. 30' x 15') for testing my new growing hobby, If everything goes well, I have another acre I can open to add more, and an adjacent 50 acres currently vacant that are "available" (that is if I make my wallet "available" lol). I don't intend to enclose the sides. I'm not interested in controlling pests, I only want to cover the zinnias so that 1. I can control the amount of moisture via fertigation through the pvc system I am installing, and 2. prevent not only excess moisture and resultant humidity (to some extent) but also physical plant/flower damage from the daily torrential downpours we get for 5 months of the year,,,predicatably: 1-2 inches daily around 4 pm, from May through September. Any recommended improvements?
