Default Re: Greenhouse Heat problem

Last night it got down to 9 degrees here in St Louis, with the small kerosene heater and the 1500 watt heater I was able to kept the temp above 50. I need to put some weather stripping on the bottom of the door, that should help as well. Seems like I only need the kerosene heater when the temp drops below about 25 or so.

I have palms, cacti, succulents and some banana plant pups in my greenhouse. I suppose it could get down to about 40 without damaging the plants but I really dont want it to go that low.
