Outside or greenhouse

7 years ago

Its been rather sunny lately, the greenhouse gets to about 30 Celcius (86F) in my small 3 tier plastic greenhouse. Do I put out my ponderosa lemon and calamondin in the sunlight all day or should I leave them in the greenhouse. Here is how the weather looks this week.

Hi Kevin,

I put my trees outside for three weeks now and they are fine. My temperature is pretty much the same as you here in Montreal. Just be careful when you first put your trees outside to avoid any burn.

Kevin, my trees went out as soon as the temps stayed above 35. They have done great. They might slow a little on colder nights, but will be just fine. Lots of fresh air and sunlight does wonders)
