We put clones in 18 spot floating foam lettuce boards. The boards are about 2 x 4 feet. They fit 4 across 64 down. It’s about 17000 soft. The only automated equipment is the greenhouse itself. All nutrients and ph adjusting are done by hand. Very time consuming. I have the funds to get automated ph and nutrient adjustment and monitoring system. The ponds are about 18 inches deep. I would love some suggestion on who makes the best controller for a grow of this size. We do a kind of sea of green where once the clones we added make it to other end of pond they are big moms waiting to be cloned. We also emptied a few ponds to run 65 gallon and 45 gallon smart pot with coco peat mix.idk if anyone will be interested so I’ll wait for some responses for more details.

A what point to you cut? when the plant starts to flower?
Some of the plants were about 10 feet tall. It is 17000 sqft. the ponds are about 12,000-15,0000 gallons each. Thanks for reading!!!
Thanks bro! Ya nothing like clones for an even canopy.
We never flower in this facility. We do a perpetual veg. We sell moms and clones as well as plant them outside ourselves mainly for cbd production. We tested thru those tall ones and kept the best.
