Hello my good banana-folks! I'm looking for some EXPERTS to help me with some AVERAGE TEMPS. and RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS for my small 8' x 4' greenhouse here in Illinois! It is FINALLY allmost finished! I'm planning on haveing 4 pineapples/4 pomegranates/and 4 papayas in it over the course of the winter! Right now it is 28 degrees f. outside and 59 degrees f. w/48 relative humidity on the inside (of greenhouse) at 10:00 p.m.! I'm thinking cranking it up to about 68-72 degrees f. and possibly the same 68-72 relative humidity would this be proper? Only 1 (one) foreseeable problem, when the sun is nice and bright it does get up to 90-105 degrees f.(for 2-3 hours) in there, but i have my misting solution allmost completed!
PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
THANX ROBBY
P.S. My pineapples are just pre-rooted tops from store bought-papayas from seed from Fla. (what a great state) and the pomegranates if i can find them, seeds from the kind that grow in the snowy regions in Iran such as turkmanestan=(spelling)!
