Looking for a Greenhouse

Hello again,

I've mentioned it already in the introduction section but I want to ask here for a little advice.

And I noticed here are some members in this community with much more knowledge about gardening.

So I'm planning to buy/build up a greenhouse because I have to expand my garden.

I've got enough space so it should be moderate to big sized and also quite affordable.

I would be very thankful for any recommendations or ideas!

Love & Greetings, Loona ;)

Where abouts do you live Loona?

How about a visit to a garden centre to get some ideas and prices?

It reminds me of a time when my Father told my Mother that he'd got her a home wine making kit for her birthday, and that it was in the garden.

When she went outside to see it, he had arranged for a flash gang to sneak round overnight & erect a full size greenhouse, with a set of grapevines pre-planted.

Are you thinking of something sturdy of glass (or fibre) & aluminium and or a quick-up of polyethylene?

Oh that's really cheap, but I'm thinking a bit bigger - however it would be a nice alternative for the start :)

Like I said it should have a moderate size. Like on this pics I found:

Maybe more like on the second one but with the size of the first... (a little inconvenient expressed) :wah:

Well getting one built for you will not likely be economical. Here is some more do-it-yourself info.
