Why Not Build Your Own Greenhouse
Dec 8th, 2009 by Myarticle

Before you go ahead and buy that expensive greenhouse, why not look into the cheaper option of building your own greenhouse, or even buying a much cheaper portable greenhouse. There are many positive points for building your own greenhouse beyond the fact that it is a lot less expensive.

If you are building your own greenhouse then you can perfectly fit the space that you have available, instead of compromising with the available sizes of standard greenhouses. Rectangular and octagonal are the most common greenhouse shapes.There are even pre-conceived ideas of sizes. You can adjust the size to fit the odd shaped space you have available, if you build your own. It would not be conventional and will need some thought about the way you set it up inside to maximise the space, but it will be unique to you and become a feature of your garden.

You do not have to be a builder to build your own greenhouse. Plans to build a greenhouse are readily available which will give you all the information you need. You can even modify these plans to suit your size requirements, or special features, if you are a competent DIYer.

Before embarking on your project, there are a number of things to which you should give some consideration. Where are you going to place your greenhouse?. It should not be shaded by trees or your house, so that you get all the heat available from the sun, especially in autumn and spring when you need all the heat you can get. It should be as near to your house as you can get it so that you can supply it with water and, if you are using it, electricity. It will also make going to the greenhouse easier on cold or wet days. During inclement weather, your greenhouse comes into its own. You can always work indoors instead of outside!

When you get your plans for your greenhouse, you need to look at them carefully to ensure you have all the tools you will need to finish the project. If you do not have them, then often you can hire them or even borrow them from friends and relatives when the time come. I have seen inumerable projects that have never been completed simply because of lack of the right tool when it was needed, so do check at the start. You don’t want half a greenhouse in your garden.

There are many places you can buy plans for building a greenhouse. The interernet is a god place to start. So, look at plans for building your greenhouse, be sure they give you all the information you will need to complete the project. Then think about it carefully, before you start. The satisfaction from raising plants in your greenhouse is immense, and is even better knowing that you built it yourself.
