Temperature -greenhouse temperature controls help you to
lower the temperature in your greenhouse during those hot
summer months, when an excess of heat can actually lead to
heat stress and other high-temperature diseases that can damage
your output. Shade coverings, sun-resistant poly, and good
ventilation can all help lower your greenhouse’s internal
temperature to keep plants at the right temperature for success.
The temperature in a greenhouse is affected by the
ventilation and the amount of sunshine it receives.
Greenhouses are designed to trap the heat from the sun.
If nobody changed anything, the temperature would
keep rising until the sun went down. Temperature can be
controlled by opening the door or opening vents in the
roof. In extreme cases, air conditioning could be used to
bring the temperature down to a more reasonable level.
Temperature control is one of the easiest aspects to
automate. It is probably one of the cheapest as well. You
can link vents in the roof to a system of rods that open
and close the vents in response to the temperature. As a
backup, you can also install a greenhouse heater.
Mungbeans are a warm season crop requiring 90–120 days of frost free
conditions from planting to maturity (depends on variety).
Adequate rainfall is required from flowering to late pod fill in order
to ensure good yield. Late plantings which result in flowering during the
high temperature-low moisture period in July and August will
reduce yield.
Growth factors:
Temperature- the optimum temperature range for growth is
between 27 °C and 30 °C. This means that the crop is usually grown
during summer. Seed can be planted when the minimum temperature
is above 15 °C. Mung bean plants require full sunlight or at least eight
to 10 hours of sunlight daily.
Humidity - Mung beans require moisture to soften the seed coat and
begin the germination process. Soaking mung beans for a few hours
before planting allows the seed to swell and begin softening prior to
planting. Ensure adequate moisture by pre-irrigating your soil before
planting your mung beans. Keep the soil evenly moist while the beans
begin to sprout.
Ventilation
Sunlight – DARKNESS!!! While some seeds require light to
germinate and begin sprouting, several types of beans, including
mung beans require darkness to germinate. Outdoor planting in sunny
areas requires a depth of at least 1 inch to block light rays during
the period of germination. Plant them about half per in sandy types of
soil. Beans germinated for use as sprouts must also receive a period of
darkness. Placing them in a dark container and covering the top of the
container with dark paper can help protect them from excessive
amounts of light.

Additional:
Soil pH and Moisture
Adjusting the soil acidity and moisture content is more involved.
Probes attached to meters are inserted into the soil to monitor those
levels. Automated systems for adjusting the levels can be installed, but
on the scale of a backyard greenhouse, it's probably simpler and more
efficient to read the info from the meters and adjust the levels
manually, as needed.
Mung bean sprouts prefer soils with pH levels between 6.2 and 7.2, as
well as adequate amounts of sulfur, magnesium phosphorus and
potassium. Fertile soils that contain a rich blend of sand and loam
provide essential nutrients for healthy growth.
