Greenhouse Temperature

Hi

Can anyone please tell me what is the best temp for the greenhouse.

Been to the plot today about 3pm (very hot day here) and the temp in the greenhouse was 36c I would guess now that the roof is painted it will not get much hotter as today was the hottest day we've seen in ages.

There is not an easy way to cool the greenhouse as it is probably as old as the ark and hand made with only one small window. It is also not always going to be possible to get down to the plot to open the door to cool it.

In the gh are tomatoes, peppers, cucumber and chillies - does anyone see a problem with the temp.

Cheers

It'll get hotter than that in the summer ! when the nights are warmer I leave a window open all night this helps with slowing down the temp rise.
