I have now removed the solar blanket material from the top and the sides of both greenhouses. Solar blanket remains on the two ends, including the door(s) end. I have used 50% shade cloth on the lean-to ("Orchid") greenhouse and 70% on the free-standing ("Everything Else") greenhouse. The greenhouses will soon be mostly emptied, putting the plants under large oak and cedar trees, where they will remain until fall. About the only plants that I will leave in the "Orchid" greenhouse will be a couple of hundred "baby" orchids. I will use the "Everything Else" greenhouse for starting seeds and roots plants, mainly plumeria.
