Water temperature

19 years ago

Does anyone have any data showing what temperature rain water is in different parts of the world whee most of the "tropical" orchids grow? (Ecuador, Peru, Madagascar, Borneo, etc..)

I don't have water plumbed into my attached greenhouse so in the winter I have to hook a hose to the kitchen sink and run it out to the GH each time I water.

How cold is too cold and how warm is too warm?

I have measured my hose water temp a few times lately and it seems to be at about 61-63 degrees, I guess I will keep using the outside hose faucet until the water temp gets into the upper 50's or until I find info showing what temp the rain water is in my orchids natural habitats.

Thanks,

Travis
