Environmental Control

  • Temperature
    ****-**-** (Temperature): not actively regulated (ambient greenhouse conditions) / (ambient outdoor conditions)
    ****-**-** (Temperature): 55/46 °C (day/night) 
    R/1996-08-01/P1D (Temperature): 55/46 °C (day/night) 
    ****-**-** = jeden Tag im Jahr
