Low last night 21C with all the vents open and some glass removed. High today 41C, barely warmer than outside. Lots of shading, no immediate signs of damage. The cold frames has less shade, but taking a lot of plants out and wetting them down a few times, everything seems OK.

The situation in Northern Italy is nothing short of critical. By now the temperature has surpassed all records and the drought is raging. Despite the shading net that filters 50% of the light, the internal temperature during the hours of sunshine is between 39 and 40 degrees Celsius. The minimum never dropped below 21 degrees Celsius. Mode is 25 degrees Celsius. I try to contain overheating with rainwater vaporization every two days with the hope of not having fungal infections. All this despite having removed the side walls of the greenhouse ...

Temperatures in the mid 50s yesterday and the Commiphora seeds germinated this morning.

With shading on the sunnier side, and 3 fans going strong, max was 51C. No obvious damage this morning but perhaps any would need a few days to appear?

If I am correctly informed by my mentor (I'm a relative beginner) it might take a few weeks until we see the full extent. And there's talk of more high temperatures for eastern counties at the weekend.
It ain't over yet.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.
