The whitewash method below is one of the oldest, cheapest and easiest ways to somewhat cool a summer greenhouse. But after enough summers struggling with the heat, I now just empty the house until September. I start second season seedlings on benches outside in a shady location or occasionally have a small house covered with only shadecloth. (But the shade cloth is murderously expensive) Once in a while, I have had the chance to locate a greenhouse to passive solar advantage-east to west with a hedgerow of deciduous trees on the south side. But most of the time, recalling that Hell itself is a warm, well-lit place, I abandon the house for the summer. Shawnee, zone 5 which is like living in the Arctic all winter and Death Valley in the summer.
