Great pics! Now I remember you telling about your job some time ago! Sounds like it's a great job for you, and looks like you do a great job for them.

Norma, there are two rules when it comes to fans...

You want enough to just move the air. You don't need the plants thinking they are in a hurricane.

And number two, get the cheapest you can. I buy the $15 box fans from Home Depot.

I have mine on timers so they come on at 11:00am and shut off at 4:00pm. (because I'm cheap when it comes to the electric bill).

You might get by with one fan, two at most.

Default Okay, some more updated photos...

The roof is completed on the last half of the main orchid house... It has clear roof panels and 60% shadecloth underneath


The other half is slightly darker, with tinted roof panels..


The north wall now has fans partially installed. I framed them out, screened one, but will rethink that..


Here is the one that will be tore out and go with a new direction. It was too much labor, looks sloppy, but I now know what I'm gonna do with it..


I added another bench, but it is already full


Oh, hows about some baby photos?

Default Some other pics...

Our repottring station... (notice two chids ready to dissect?)


Behind that, the new bench, with bins of bulk media..


And some overall views...
Looking south from the main orchid house, into the new one...


Even deeper in...


Even FURTHER in (closer to the house) and this structure has only a shade cloth covering, where we hang our Brassavola nodosa crosses..
