Default Extreme disappointment over Angraecum and brewing dissatisfaction with heater.

Hello all,

This is my first post in a while. So far, everything has been good in regard to the greenhouse renovation. I have had several blooming plants and the drainage has been good.

That said, I am extremely angry at my space heater. It completely ruined my Angraecum spikes on my Crestwood for the second year in a row.

Lately, my heater has a problem with the heating temperature cycle. It is supposed to cycle around whatever temperature is currently in the greenhouse when I pull the set knob. I think this is a stupid system. It should have a place to set the desired temperature like an A/C rather than “cycle around current temperature”.

After a few weeks, the program will get corrupted and the heater will blow past the temperature it’s supposed to keep and end up above 86f (bad for the plants and the electric bill). This time, it directed most of the hot air at an Angraecum crestwood with 2 spikes and 6 buds. All of those buds are of course now dead from low humidity (the high temps caused <18% humidity) and all my plants are dried out from just 60 hours of low humidity and high temps.

My New Years display is ruined a second year in a row.
