The plants spent a half day in the hoops today. It was a slighty overcast day and got up to about 66 outside. I suspect as the temps come up - I'll need a much bigger fan to keep things around 85. The warming cables are keeping the top 8 or ten inches of soil around 80 depending on the outside temp. The other unit you see in the back of the hoop is a three setting space heater. 600, 900, 1200watts...I try to only use the low setting. But if it gets below about 44 at night I have to go up more to maintain something inside over 50...
