Beat the Greenhouse Heat: Simple Shading Net Trick
Summer heat is often a problem for gardeners, especially those with greenhouses. High temperatures can damage or even kill plants. But a Belarusian gardener, Tanya Troplants, shared a simple and effective solution on social media. Using a common shading net, she successfully lowered the temperature in her greenhouse by up to 5 degrees. "The difference is significant," Troplants says. "Without the net, it's like a sauna in there." The net is easily attached with wire, requires no removal, and withstands wind and rain. The video shows the process and the positive effect on her tomato plants. Troplants plans to share a follow-up video on choosing the right net. This simple technique can benefit many gardeners struggling with greenhouse heat.
