Hi..the last few days have been amazingly hot! at one stage it was 34Degrees in the greenhouse...even with the windows and doors open. what temperature is too hot in the greenhouse? I have been spraying light drizzle a couple of times during the day. Is there anything else i should really be doing? |

Hi
Try some shade netting or whitewash the glass to keep the heat of the day from getting through.
