Seriously though, I do run a fan at the peak of the seedling house on a really low speed. My thoughts are that it should help to circulate the air a bit. |
Our friends who own a large GH business spend a 100k on heat every season, it is just part of the overhead.
I have had icicles on the outside of my GH at -10, have about a foot of snow still in the yard. We have to suck it up, we want perfect product when people are ready to buy in late spring. It all works out if you have a good business model, we spend a bit on heat, labor, supplies, and NEVER cut corners. When new people come in, many times they come back, that is the plan.
