Ok so here is the overall setup....
Roughly 10 x 12 hoop house, single layer poly over PVC Hoops held by rebar. The "door" is a simply stick-on zipper from Amazon. Heating/Cooling is done with a dual function Inkbird set at 68 with an 8 degree DIF. So it'll heat when it gets to 60 and cool at 78. Typically I raise the sidewalls during nice weather, as they just clip on.
I have a high-bay LED light on an 17/7 timer. I rigged it to an extension cord and unplug it during the daylight if it's sunny.
I've not been much into CO2, so I just bought one of those pre-made hangable CO2 cans and shake it every morning. After two weeks, it's pretty much run out of juice.
Soil heating cables are in and set to a separate thermostat that I borrowed from my prop. mat, set at 80.
So far so good for my first setup, but many things learned for next season.
