questions regarding outdoor growing
Hello everyone, I'm somedude.
I have been growing bell peppers, peppers and tomatoes for about a year now using NFT. I want to build something similar to this(high hoop building), but smaller, in my backyard to plant peppers. I have a couple of questions though. 1. it's HOT here. The average temperature is 29 C(84F) and during the warmest months, it can peak at 34 C(93F) Should I cover the hoop in shade cloth(if so, what percentage should i get) or should i just cover the top of the hoop partially so the sun doesn't directly shine on the plants around 11am-3pm? what would you recommend? 2. I plan to use insect mesh instead of polyethylene to allow for the wind to pollinate my plants. Would this be enough, or should i still shake the plants? |
