Greenhouse Gardening as a Hobby
Brigitte Smith shares her insight. For people who would like to do more gardening but live in a short growing season area, a hobby greenhouse is the answer. A hobby greenhouse is not large enough to produce vegetables or flowers on a commercial basis. It will, however, give you a place for a tomato plant or two and some fresh greens even if you live in the northern regionsJan. 25, 2006
Greenhouse Controls
Environmental control in your new greenhouse. In order to manipulate the environment of your greenhouse there are three basic controls to be aware of: Temperature, Humidity, and Water. Luckily all of these can be maintained auto– or semi-automatically.Jan. 24, 2006
Choosing a Greenhouse
Know your options. If you are a garden novice and want to pursue greenhouse gardening then it is best to start with a small but expandable greenhouse kit. If you want to start very small, around eight or less plants, then a cold frame is a good choice. They are especially beneficial for cold-weather growers as they are fantastic at temperature regulation. You can purchase or build your own cold frame with PVC pipe fittings.Jan. 20, 2006
PVC Fittings for Your Greenhouse
How to construct a greenhouse from PVC fittings. Many people opt to use specialty PVC fittings to create their own functional works. There are a range of structures which can be created using custom PVC fittings. It's important to have a resource that shows you all kinds of PVC furniture fittings and how to use them, which is why many plant growers prefer to browse a recommended web vendor.Jan. 19, 2006
Potting Benches
Choosing the right bench for your greenhouse. When people order a potting bench for their greenhouse kits they don't always consider all of their options. Potting benches should be used for transferring plants not for growing and display. For those tasks, there are many decorative styles that facilitate good growth in all plants.Jan. 19, 2006
