Question regarding growing B. Caapi and P. Viridis
    #23582387 - 08/27/16 02:33 AM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Hey guys,

I just acquired another cutting of Chacruna and Caapi and have a few questions on how best to help them thrive, my last ones didn't do so well.

It's currently winter here, temps ranging from 12°c (54°f) during the day to 4°c (39°f) overnight.

I'm wondering how these plants would go being kept outside in a 3 tier greenhouse under a roofed porch?

My guess is that it would be way too cold. What temp is the greenhouse at?

I have no idea, it's an unheated greenhouse and would be outside under cover. I've seen reports of caapi surviving temps down to 2 degrees. Would they be better off if I kept the greenhouse inside near a window?

I've never grown caapi and dont know much about it but viridis, being a tropical shrub, doesn't like cold temps. I would keep it inside. The combination of high humidity and cold temps is awful for cacti, I don't see why it would be any better for leafy plants.
