Here in Austin I've been waiting pretty much all of April to get a not-too-hot opening in the forecast for having my entire spring-summer-early-fall's worth of of D3 regimen components delivered alive and well, and have just pushed that button. I suppose my urging can be summarized thusly: Order 3 to 5 months worth (depending on your local climate) of your heat sensitive D3 components while there is still some cool weather, or risk purchasing some dead krap, and worst case scenario: The Beast catches you with cluster-pants halfway down. @Bejeeber I didn't know this! Is d3 heat sensitive too? Where I stay in North India, we're getting heatwaves of 46-47 degrees Celsius! That's close to 120 F I think.

Bejeeber Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 I've specifically tried to search for info on D3 heat sensitivity and have come up with nothing definitive on the subject, so I'm inclined to think there's not a great specific risk there. I too will welcome any more definitive info though, if anyone has such knowledge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoscoPiko Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Not informative as far as the effects of heat on D but I wanted to share because I'm excited. All that's left to be done on the greenhouse is electric for the fan and grow lights (lights not necessary at this time of year). For now im using a rinky dink fan plugged into the house electric. Anyhow here she is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejeeber Posted May 22, 2022 Author Share Posted May 22, 2022 Those interior shots are stunning! It's like a full on good vibes factory, in addition to the good veggies. You really got it going on now, it must be seriously exciting to have actually reached this stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a more to the topic note I did read that heat has a negative effect on vitamins in general but there were a few called out specifically like COQ10 and B12.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
