Default Re: artificial to sun....HOW?

My Procyon died that I was using on my hydroponic banana so while I'm waiting on the new one I have been putting it outside for a few hours. I work so it got 2 days of about 10 hours before I could bring it back in and it started burning. Now I just have it next to a windows. Shame all the leaves were dark dark green pretty plant (in my photos) and the last one that came out is light green.

Need to check out how much light is on the front portch. That might be a good place to leave that plant for now.

If you have tons of light like here in south Texas a non glass open/vented greenhouse would cut down on some of the intensity. I've been looking at land and a few greenhouses up to 30'x96' so I could grow my smaller bananas/papayas year long as well as other plants and vegitables.
