How to set up the Greenhouse Area
Knowing how to arrange the greenhouse area is an important skill that one needs to develop for maximum impact and functionality. Before the greenhouse arrives one needs to consider the purpose of the greenhouse, activities that will go on in the area, and where such sources of water and electricity are located.
Location, location, location is an important consideration that one needs to take before sitting up the greenhouse. Are there trees around, is the ground level, and where does the sun come up and sit are factors that need to be looked at. Also what is the greenhouse going to be used for and is it going to be a mobile unit or a permanent structure. A greenhouse function can strictly be to start seeds or to raise plants year round. Also the type of plants that will be grown are an important consideration. An example of this is the production of poinsettia. These plants require 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark for the leaves to turn. Streetlights, car lights, and household lights all can affect a poinsettia’s ability to turn colors. So choose the location wisely based on the function of the greenhouse.
