Many summer residents cannot imagine their cities and plots without a well-equipped greenhouse, because it significantly improves the quality and quantity of the crop, allowing it to be harvested much earlier than in the open field. Below are the most popular options for such buildings.
Criterias of choice
Today, there is a huge variety of different greenhouses on the market: there are options from polycarbonate, metal, wooden structures. Getting lost in such a variety is easy.
It is important that the summer cottage is reliable, made of high quality and durable material. Also, it must be adapted to absolutely any weather conditions. The issue of price also occupies an important position.
The purpose of the installation of the structure
To understand what kind of greenhouse is needed, first you need to decide what and in what quantities it is planned to grow there. If the planting is done exclusively for the needs of the family, then simpler options will go. If this is part of additional income, then you need to get confused here. In the first case, the structure will be inexpensive and easily erected, in the second, a lot of money will need to be invested in order for the building to be spacious and well thought out.
Appearance
To decide how the structure will look, you need to take into account a number of factors, and this is not only the aesthetic side. For example, in order to determine the shape of the building (round roof or "house"), you need to think in advance what exactly will be grown there in the future. If the plants are low, then the roof can not be raised high, limiting itself to only an oval arc. If tall and climbing plants are planned to be grown, then the height of the greenhouse must also be foreseen in advance.
Place of installation
The greenhouse should be installed in a place where the sun lingers the longest and where there are practically no drafts, because they negatively affect the blowing of the structure from the inside.
Materials
The most popular material today is cellular polycarbonate, which is more durable than the same glass.
The cheapest option is plain thick plastic wrap. But, when mounting something like that on your site, it is worth remembering the short service life of this material.
If a person does not have a large budget for installing a high-quality polycarbonate greenhouse, then you can choose reinforced polyethylene, it is much stronger than usual. Hence, it will last longer.
