The heat is on! Female
Default The heat is on!
Today we are supposed to hit 100. Yesterday, when we were at a mere 97, the temp in the greenhouse hit 103. I ran inside to get the aluminet sun shade, and almost immediately, the temperature dropped to 99. That's the good news.
The BAD news is that I already have a sun shade up (the kind you'd find at ACE or Lowe's), and with the aluminet, I'm afraid I won't have enough light for the cattleyas, much less the tomatoes. If the temperature in the greenhouse continues to rise, I'm likely to have fried plants.
Ideas?
