Hey everyone how do I grow marijuana outside in my greenhouse, reason for my post is I’ve never done it before outside. I’m in Adelaide temps.
I have a greenhouse parcel coming coloured 4x3x2.5 greenhouse. I currently have one inside in a grow tent that was planted yesterday and plan on moving it outside in a few days. My main concern is insects!!! Can I use neem oil and a bunch of stuff to prevent insects, this drives me crazy

Ya don't unless you've got massive water walls and massive fans the size of a small house pumping airflow through and cooling the hot house.

Small home garden greenhouses are prone to mold because they build up moisture and humidity and the temperature skyrockets, I measured 70centigrade in a home garden hot house that was made out of plastic and some tent tubing basically.

It's not all bad they are really, really, really useful for season extension or getting an early start.
For example the cooler at the start of the season can be offset with a closed hot house to raise the temperature same as the back end but that's a bit dicey with mold. Gotta have airflow at the least

I grew outdoors in Adelaide my first run, in one of them plastic tent things with poles.
Temperatures got to 45° at least inside on hot days, god knows when we had those 4o° days outside, had to cut holes in the top for airflow.

I used 50L pots mainly for root mass, but it probably helped so there was enough soil mass to try amd combat heat (use fabric maybe as the black plastic pots were a heat trap, or amend the soil and plant directly in the ground if you can)

I had 2 plants in there, did alright, I think it was like 11 Oz I got, they seemed to ride through the heat tbh for me.

Lots of monitoring and dont skip a day watering when the heat kicks in.


I didn't have any noticable issues with insects from memory, or atleast nothing note worthy and my compost pile was about 2m away from my plants. Its essentially closed off minus a few entries so not like the plants are open to any fly by night bugs.... of course its still outside so I may have just been lucky.


Not sure of the exact greenhouse you're talking about, but look up my JHxSJ/WH² grow to see what I was doing in Adelaide a few years ago.
