Greenhouse Supplies, Kits, and more.
Regardless of whether you are brand new to greenhouses or were born with a green thumb, we think you have made a great decision by visiting spectrumgreenhouses.com. We know there is a lot of information out there and that it may be difficult to follow.
We have included a lot of information about shopping for and maintaining greenhouses. The information you find here is unbiased. We are not sponsored or paid to promote any brand or method.
As you look around our site, you will find useful information about the difference between glass greenhouses and plastic greenhouses. We also offer a lot of information about greenhouse supplies, greenhouse kits and portable greenhouses.
Greenhouses are generally made using wood, metal, or plastic frames. Panes are usually glass or a plastic composite.
The first thing to consider when you decide to buy a greenhouse of any size or shape is what plants you will grow. Flowers, veggie and fruit seeds, and spring propagation demands a different set-up than growing tropical plants year-round. Specialized flowers such as orchids, African violets, and bromeliads require a completely different set-up. If you don’t know at all what you’d like, consult a professional.
Greenhouse styles vary greatly, the most common being A-frame, Quonset, tri-penta, gothic arch, dome, gabled, and a whole host of lean-to’s. The structures can be attached to another structure (such as your home) or freestanding.
Greenhouse supplies include:
• Watering systems (misters, etc.)
• Ventilation
• Grow lights
• Heaters
• Meters
• Shade cloths
• Fans and shuttersWhether you sell your wares every weekend at the farmer’s market using portable greenhouses, or have a mid-size hobby greenhouse overflowing with exotic orchid plants, all greenhouses are the same in that they offer a manufactured, predictable, and safe environment in which to cultivate plants all year round.
