[IBC] Greenhouse question
Mines not a greenhouse but a cold frame with a
greenhouse like top. Anyway what i ended up doing was wrapping 2 turns of heating coil "pipe heating coils" around some pots. Then mulching them in. Then placing a sensor inside the soil of a few of the pots hooked up to thermostats. The pipe heating coil's come on around 28 degrees and go off around 35 degrees. I only have them wrapped around the trees with more cold sensitive root systems. Such as a kingsville boxwood, serissa, japanese maples, trident maple, chinese elm, crape myrtle and a flowering apricot. Any day above about 38 i open the cold frame to let air flow in. I keep a oscilating fan in the cold frame turned on at all times when the frame is closed. Ben __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
