Replace walkin greenhouse cover with 40-60 %shade clothe

[aparnamane]

Hi OB,

I have walk-in greenhouse from last couple of months and recently realized it's becoming so hot inside and my orchid leaves are burning, mostly Oncidium types, mostly because of the sun rays coming from door side and if I close the door then not getting enough air circulation.

I was thinking to replace entire greenhouse cove (kind of platic green cover) with 40-60% shade cloth, wondering if someone tried similar set up. Wondering if it is ok to replace with shade clothe only that means greenhouse won't have one extra layer which will increase air flow, but would that provide more intense light and burn orchid leaves?

Please let me know your thoughts.


Thanks.
