Ceramic Reptile heater for walk-in green house

[aparnamane]

Hi ALL,

Apologies if this has already been discussed, but I would like to hear if anyone uses a ceramic reptile heater in a walk-in greenhouse during winter months to maintain temperature, particularly in California.
If so what is the experience?

Please let me know your thoughts, I would like to use one to maintain a minimum temperature of around 60°F for my Phals.


Thanks.

I don't see how any reptile heater intended to be placed under a terrarium could keep a greenhouse at 60 F / 15.5C during even a moderately cool night. You will need a larger heater. It will cost quite a bit of money to run.

Your phals. will be unhappy at 60°F without additional heat. In your climate (I worked in Vista) they’ll do better indoors by a window. Add some seedling heating mats if you keep your house cool in the winter.
