Cool Greenhouse Temps

Just curious what temps you guys are keeping your greenhouse's at. This is my first year with one and I'm trying to germinate some banana seeds so I'm thinkin I need it to be at least 70-75. Also feel free to post some pics of your winter shack. I'll post mine tomorrow even though it's not done yet.

Default Re: Greenhouse Temps

I try to keep my greenhouse from falling below 70. During a sunny winter day the greenhouse will get to 95 from the thurmal gain and my cooling fans will kick on.

This time of year the outside temps during the day are around 50's and the outside night temps are teens to 20's.

Cold Winter nights are expensive for me with below 0 temps. I may be the gas companies biggest burner in my area, and I hate it.
