150 sq ft- Just finished getting the drip lines set-up. Probably a bit too late...this plant doesnt like heat..only 82 degrees and it is still showing alot of flagging. I know the lines look close together. That is because they are...about a ten inch spacing. They are run between every secondary with duct tape over the emitters where ever it crosses over a vine.That is an attempt to reduce disease issues by keeping the vines dry. Each line has a separate shutoff in case I see some area getting too wet. I will wait for a few days for the fruit to set then plan to start feeding the plant with a 1/2 hydroponic solution. With the sand that I grow on it will be similar without the recirculation. This small area growing is fun...can I blow her up?
