I have scored the pair of greenhouses I was after from bunnings and 2 desktop thermometers.I think for the first few days I am going to monitor the internal and external temperatures over different ambient temperatures and see if there is any corelation.At the moment there is one degree C. difference between outside and inside temperatures

Some of what I am pursuing would change atmospheric chemistry. With that said, can you put some plants in one but not the other? Then you should observe different levels of CO2 because CO2 + H2O + h > CH2O and O2.
Because plants would be observing energy to convert CO2 and H2O into formaldehyde and the oxygen molecule, the temperature could be slightly lower.
Then remove the plants and see what the temperature is with a lower CO2 level. The lower CO2 level would mean that there is less water vapor and more oxygen in that greenhouse.
If you could hang something over the doors to the greenhouses then you could decrease the mixing with the outside air when you enter them. And if you feel like it, at some point you could place a cup of water in each greenhouse. This would increase humidity and with different CO2/O2 levels in both greenhouses, how does increased humidity influence their temperatures?
While something like this might take a couple of months to see if there is a trend, as you pointed out, inside the greenhouse is warmer. One of the things that I hope to demonstrate is that gravity influences the temperature in the troposphere, that's the part of the atmosphere we live in. Basically atmospheric gasses should be traveling at about 28,440 kph. The Earth rotates at about 1,600 kph. Coincidentally, the Earth has been slowing as well.
With what I mentioned about gasses, reactive gasses like O2 might help to increase atmospheric temperature.

Plants absorb and not observe energy, what h (Planck's constant) represents. And such observations could show if increased CO2 or increased H2O levels increase the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of a greenhouse.
And the difference in O2 and CO2 levels can be considered as CO2 converts to O2 because of photosynthesis. And if the plants are removed, then the temperature difference between 2 greenhouses with different levels of CO2 could suggest what influences warming, gasses that are more reactive like O2 or gasses that are less reactive like CO2. And that's basically how a hypothesis is considered and how it can be tested. With the hypothesis, it would be considered as a null hypothesis; (in a statistical test) the hypothesis that there is no significant difference between specified populations, any observed difference being due to sampling or experimental error.
To show a difference would then nullify the hypothesis that different gasses do not influence the temperature in a given environment. And Duncan, I won't be surprised if more O2 has a greater difference than more CO2. Just my opinion.


Because plants need watering (water vapor is a greenhouse gas), burning candles in one greenhouse would increase the amount of CO2 levels while decreasing the amount of O2. Or maybe shake up a bottle of soda and then barely open the top so some of it leaks out. The CO2 in the soda is what makes it foam when shaken. A candle might be a simpler idea. Then the increase in CO2 would be relative to the decrease in O2.

@Duncan, discharging CO2 into one greenhouse would show if as one person in this forum posted cools the atmosphere. Since greenhouses aren't "airtight" their atmospheric pressure will balance out. And with what I have posted, I have simplified a hypothesis and how to test it in the simplest way possible. Greater complexity does not allow for Occam's Razor which states the simpler the idea, the most likely it is correct.

Good God... He never stated the size of the greenhouses, but your talking about quite an investment in instruments to measure a log all that data, even for very small ones... Formaldehyde is generally released during the rotting process. Most greenhouses are designed to be sealed air-tight, like a Norwegian Navy boat. It's not desired to stagnate the air inside, or for them to get extremely hot either. The intent, is to maintain a warm, consistent growing environment. The don't trap 'heat', they just keep what's already there from mixing with the colder, outdoors air, and blowing a away with the wind. They just slow the flow.

Really? Injecting CO2 from a cartridge means what? 80 grams of CO2 costs US $8.50.https://www.amazon.com/Leland-Co2-Cartridges-10-Count/dp/B000I1WMXY/ref=asc_df_B000I1WMXY/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=193137569013&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12363856977488711970&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9014315&hvtargid=pla-306662694926&psc=1

Please quit watching your "surveillance video" of gals you pay to visit you. Kind of why they're naked, right?

Be a better value to rent a tank either from welding , or restaurant supply... he'd need a lot better than Walmart grade test equipment, to get any usable data. Unless he want a lot of tolerance to play with, like the IPCC.

He could just place a jug of Kentucky corn whiskey in each greenhouse. And wait and see how long it takes his Norwegian neighbor to empty them...

Its 7.8 C. in the little greenhouse and 7.3 C. on the table at 8.00am this morning so at this point the greenhouse is showing a warmer trend which we all kind of knew would happen.Today I will be picking up my table from work and placing both in a sunnier location.CO2 is at 627ppm on the table

The sun just popped out from behind a cloud and both thermometers are at 9.6 and CO2 is at 487ppm.Its all swinging wildly so am not sure I am going to get any useable data.I might have to build a computer model to make my theories fit reality like the warmazombies

If you know the volume of each greenhouse, injecting CO2 into one of them will show something different. Science is based on such basic observations.

I have set up both greenhouses and put the thermometers in each and they are not varying by more than .1 and most of the time they are the same.I have fully charged my CO2 meter and because I purchased smaller greenhouses I will try raising the CO2 in the test box by breathing into the test model.I will try to get a doubling of what it is on the table and see what happens

Well that was easy.I blew in to the test box and the CO2 went over 3000ppm for absolutely no change in temperature inside the box.I will keep monitoring it over more time and in different circumstances

They don't slow the flow of heat. They reduce heat.

You cannot slow or trap heat.

In almost all cases you would be right ... however convection just happens to be a flow of heat, i.e. the flow of thermal energy is itself flowing ... or more specifically the conduction itself is flowing ... which happens to be what greenhouses restrict, i.e. they restrict convection. Thus greenhouses actually restrict the flow of the flow of thermal energy by restricting the hot air from rising out of the greenhouse. The result is that the equilibrium temperature inside the greenhouse increases.

Of course, as you mention, there is still heat from the greenhouse. That cannot be stopped.

Correct. You can alter where heat occurs but you cannot prevent it from occurring.

By reducing convective heat to the outside, that is reducing heat.

Yup, it is an undeniable fact that the vast majority of greenhouses are sealed air-tight.
