It was 95 in the hoophouse after only 20 minutes of sun... 9:30 am. I think decomposing compost is helping to boost the temps. This is the first time I tried this style of hoophouse. Its great! Although I sorta planted the plants in the wrong spot where they may run out of room. But at least its warming up a large area for the roots.

The light isnt functional needs a new bulb. Its the wrong type of light it would be useful for heat only, and it turns out I do not need any extra heat.

Next year I think grow lights in the hoop houses. Some days, they could have used a bit more light. I think thats been the limiting factor here so far.
