Hot caps: How hot is hot?


All,

Well, I just finished building my spring "hotcap" structure.
Its 2'x2'x4' (happened to fit the garden bed).  I've seen many
pictures of similar structures previously and the pictures 
often have a thermometer.  I assume that this is to know when
to open up the structure a bit to cool things down.

So... in your opinion, how hot is too hot?  At what point do 
you start opening up the plastic?  90F?  95F?

I've asked questions in the past and not received any
answers... so guesses are welcome!  If you have an opinion,
please let me know.

Thanks,
David Robinson
