Has the greenhouse not got a window you could leave open a little? You can buy solar powered fans that fit into the roof that work when the temp rises. Will have a look to find the link .....

But generally speaking,brassicas don't really need to be in a greenhouse any way, they are perfectly hardy:)



Here's the Link
but am sure you can get them cheaper

I wouldn't put brassicas in a greenhouse - a cold frame maybe, until they're big enough to plant out.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.
