Setting up a light deprivation greenhouse involves a few key steps to ensure effective control of light exposure for your plants. First, choose a suitable location with adequate space and access to sunlight, as well as a structure that can be easily modified for light manipulation. Consider using a greenhouse with blackout tarps or curtains that can be drawn to block light during specific hours.
Next, install ventilation systems to maintain airflow and temperature control, as the greenhouse can trap heat. You should also plan your irrigation and drainage systems, ensuring that water is easily accessible and can be managed effectively. Once this is complete, monitor environmental conditions regularly, using tools to measure temperature, humidity, and light levels to optimize growing conditions.
