Whether you have a large backyard to give over to your hobby or just the corner of a patio available for use, there’s a greenhouse out there for you. Here are several models that should cover new or seasoned hobbyists.
Year-round use
The goal of any greenhouse is to create ideal conditions for growing starting seedlings, young plants, flowers and more. This model from Gosunny accomplishes all that – and it’s designed for year-round use. It’s easy to set up and break down – no tools are needed. A zippered, roll-up door makes for easy access. It has 12 wired shelves, offering plenty of space for plants. The heavy-duty threaded cover also allows for more sunlight to ensure warmth and growth. Its breathable windows have mesh coverings to keep insects out.
Innovative design
Owners of this greenhouse will rave about getting the biggest bang for their buck. We think it makes for a great starter greenhouse as well. And the tunnel design lends itself to accommodating a large number of plants.
Ideal for herbs
This greenhouse was designed for inside and outside use. Put it in the garage or even a basement if you prefer. And the shelves are perfect for those planting vegetables, herbs and flowers.
Great protection
Despite its larger-than-average size, this greenhouse is actually light and portable. It includes 10 bases and 20 stakes to help it stand up to snow and wind. Still, the manufacturer recommends using additional anchoring materials to improve its stability. The dual doors in front and back help ventilation.
Space-saver
Most of the features of larger greenhouses can also be found on this model from Gardman, including a removable cover, a roll-up zippered door and resistance to bugs and weather. The mini greenhouse can easily fit in the corner of a backyard or on a patio or balcony. A zip tie can be attached from the frame to the shelves and there are tabs on the back to fasten it to a wall or patio rail.
