Hello everyone,
First I would like to say this is a great informational site.

I am in northern california and growing outdoors and feel I have a good handle on that. I have a green house I have several in, that i am just messing around with and one question I have is "temperature." Can it get too hot for the plants because it will get up to 120-135 degree's? They seem to like it, just would like to make sure it is ok. Any info would help. Thanks.
 
Welcome to MP. We've never grown in a greenhouse before but those temps seem a bit high IMHO. I know we have some greenhouse growers on the site so let's see what they say. ;)

You will 'have' to have ventilation in there in summer. Commercial GH's use huge fans. You 'may' be able to suffice by rolling up the sides, or opening up a passive "flow through" system. (open up both ends or sides)
120-135 is definately too hot for good/proper/maximum plant growth.
