Default Re: Basjoo turning yellow help??

How's the humidity?

When I grew bananas in greenhouses, the only issues I had with temperature was dry heat. 50 at night and 100 during the day should be no problem if the plants are watered well with high humidity. I grew a basjoo in the ground inside my greenhouse. I would let it get up to 110F before the vents turned on. I was able to do this because I kept the humidity way up.

If I had the vents set to turn on at 95F, the humidity would go way down and the plants would suffer (even though the temp was lower). The plants did far better when I turned the vents off and kept the humidity high. 110F @ 90% > 95F @50%
