i want a shade cloth. and a 50% would do great (ive heard) and drop at least 10 maybe more 20 degrees.
Anyone else have better luck with the reflective or other types of shade cloths??? this year i built a 20x60x16 series 500, and only had 2x 5000cfm swamp coolers from home depot, and fresh intakes, with 15k cfm of fans pulling on it all. With all that it dropped the inside temp from 120 to 95 on the hottest day (being 100 almost) here in eastern colo.

High and low venting,shade cloth,circ fans,and wet wall with fans pulling the cooler air through the g.h.
I know you have swampers running. A wet wall usually spans across the entire back wall. And can be home made. We had two big exhaust fans pulling the cooler air through our 30x60 gh. Our house was also regulated by thermostatic controls....upper vents opened when needed,wet wall vents opened and pumps started etc...shade cloth tracked... |

I had that problem this summer with some Coffee trees.
100 degrees in the shade was OK ... 80 degrees in the sun was OK ... but 100 degrees & full sun ==> TOO MUCH !!! Shadecloth & more shadecloth to deal with some of it. Also had to pay attention to root mass temperature, with Cannabis. Stick my hand in the soil mid-afternoon ... waaaay too hot. Just started watering the pots mid-afternoon to get root temps down. Also covered the pots (2 cubic feet of soil in a rolling garbage can) with reflective paper. |
