How long do wooden greenhouses last?
-
Wooden greenhouses are a long lasting structure for your garden. If the wood has been pressure treated and is maintained and cared for correctly, your wooden greenhouse could last you for several decades.
Make sure to follow the manufacturers care guide and give your wooden greenhouse the best protection you can. Regular maintenance and upkeep will ensure the structure stays sturdy and strong for years to come.

Where do you place a mini greenhouse?
-
Find a space in your garden with generous amounts of nautral light and sunshine. If you are familiar with cold mornings in the garden, avoid any spaces which usually have a frost build up.
Keep the greenhouse on solid ground and away from trees, as the shade can block the light and encourage algae growth. Consider the surroundings and potential access required, making sure not to block the paths to anything important.
-
Is glass or plastic better for a greenhouse?
-
Plastic is a much cheaper option than glass, which is why it can be a popular choice for beginners. Glass however, is far more durable and will last longer, and so makes for a better long term investment.
Plastic windows for greenhouses will have to be replaced every few years, whereas glass will last for years unless damaged. Glass is also more effective in retaining heat inside the greenhouse. The good news is, both plastic and glass will work well for your greenhouse, so it just comes down to budget and preference.
-
Are mini-greenhouses any good?
-
Mini plastic greenhouses are ideal for starting off seed trays and protecting vulnerable plants from the elements. Not all gardens have space for a permanent greenhouse structure, a mini greenhouse can provide you with a space saving alternative.
It is important to protect seedlings from the elements and our mini greenhouses are ideal for growing plants from seeds. Some plants are particularly fond of humidity and a plastic greenhouse can help to recreate this atmosphere for them.
