Hi all Female
Default Hi all
Hello from sweltering KY--it was 103 yesterday, so far 101 today! Hard to keep my small lean-to greenhouse cooler than outside, but so far successful.
I grow a wide range of orchids, have one AOS award, and am interested in all kinds of gardening.
Hope to learn and contribute to this forum.
Susanu

Hi all Female

yep, I have an ancient(but still running better than ever) evap cooler that I fill up every 8 hours, and misting going almost constantly in the heat of the day. Plus 2 oscillating fans and 4 mini fans running too. Am thinking of hanging some Reemay (tobacco row cover stuff) on the outside walls--it's white and could reflect some light--have 60% shade on the roof.
thanks for the reply and the welcome!!
