Overview

Greenhouse gardening is a unique hobby that can produce stunning results for any level of gardener. Having a greenhouse means that you don't have to abide by some of the 'rules' of regular gardening because you can use a greenhouse to garden year-round and grow things that might not be considered common for your area. Although having a greenhouse can mean that you also have some additional maintenance chores, it's a rewarding undertaking for all those that attempt it. Greenhouse gardening is a big commitment, because not only do you have to take care of the plants inside, you also need to take care of the structure itself. Take care to check your building for any structural damage, especially after storms. Replace any cracked glass or plexiglass as soon as you can, and if you've got a plastic greenhouse, look for any tears in the sheeting. By taking care of small issues before they become big ones, you'll save yourself lots of time, money, and frustration.
