Justin you're doing a fine job setting up and maintaining the greenhouse, the VC's look very small and need special care to complete the hardening process these links might help.

Keeping the temperature around 80ish and humidity at 50-60% will allow the plant's to grow and increase your chances of success. I am not an expert and would recommend taking the time to research/Google the subject. Maybe there are other members that would like to share their experience.

The humidity always seems to get higher at night, but yeah no more than 80 Fahrenheit? Maybe even a big plastic bag propped over the top of the lights to trap %&temp?

I would be very careful applying that much light and heat to delicate plants.

I picked up a couple digital thermometers w/ the outside sensor and found out they pick up on the closest sensor.. The one for my babies in the garage was picking up my outside sensor.. I was freaking when it got down to 43F and went out there and it was like a sauna.. Then I was like here's your sign.. to myself.. :^)

This morning 11/13 frost/ice on the ground! It won't stay this cold for too long. Snow did Not stick. I hope once I have establish mats next year to bring at least 2 pups of each in my GH. And leave some corms in the ground to compare their hardiness and see which, out of all these, comes back to life first. I always have a plan... not all good but yea I got those LEDs in the pond OFF EBAY from Hong Kong $7. Hmmmmm ferns, that's new to me I'll think about it today.

Hmm, I'd worry about light scorch and how much heat do they actually give off?
Do you have room in the house to put the small plants?

jbyrd88888

Nah the CFL and smd lights don't give off more than 95°( I can hold the bulbs in my hand/no burn). I actually moved the lights closer.... about 4" away now. The humidity goes up high at night!!!... Even though I never water them at night, only mornings (haven't watered in over a week, it's cold), and the pond's air-stone bubblers are turned off at night too. Humidity is usually around 80-99% at night for some reason I have not understood yet.

Raja Puri 3 middle
Williams 4 upper
ALL others fine
Basjoo wasn't on heat mat= ^%$&(*^ Haha you wanna see a picture!?
Manzano not looking good= staying in center of heat mat; will loose all leaves/probably and start over.
Elephant Ears kinda messed up too
Heat mat timer had an extra couple hours (on 6pm off 10am) now 5pm-11am 11-13
Added a damn 1500w heater on a separate timer.

The other thing I'd be worried about is power loss events.
