Re: Low e reflective windows
[quote=wstrickland1;338869]Seem to be a kickstarter. Here I was contemplating digging it up for the winter but I think the mulch and a daily laser beam did the trick....
The plants behind the windows......not going to get the tan I have Pella low e......changed the grow game....Time to supplement with lights . The windows make a small difference studies have shown . Last edited by cincinnana : 02-28-2021 at 08:03 AM. |

Re: Low e reflective windows
Thanks! And that's cool about your temp zone) ). I will go on record and say I took your advice about just letting mother nature do what it does so I can see how things sort out. I'm really glad I did. Just about every plant is green and ready to pop right near the top. It's going to be a good year.

For us it creates a microclimate that is nice in the winter but can be blazing hot in the summer. You have to stay outta the rays.... |
