My healing chamber is a plastic box from Walmart made with clear plastic. I may have messed up but I didn't completely block out light. The box is on my covered and plastic wrapped porch against the house wall so it is not near any bright light. Since some of my grafts were tilting rather badly I tried just wrapping the sides with a white thin beach towel and leaving the top available for a bit of indirect light. So far almost all of the transplants are standing upright. This is just the beginning of the 3rd day since the grafting and I am thinking of removing the lid. We are having light rain that is supposed to be off and on today and the humidity is 100% so there should be no shock by removing the lid. I thought I would leave the towel around the box to prevent any leaning towards the light.
The temps on the porch have varied from about 50 degrees up to about 80 and I have little control over that.
