How to Create Your Own Backyard Greenhouse

April 26, 2020

If you have a green thumb, you may have been itching to buy a greenhouse for your yard. That way, you could start plants from seeds, and wait until they are healthy and strong before you put them outside. You could also grow your own food inside a greenhouse no matter what the temperature and climate are outside. Should you buy a backyard greenhouse that has already been fabricated, or build one yourself? If you have been thinking about a greenhouse, we have some suggestions for you.

If You Buy A Greenhouse

There are a lot of advantages to buying a greenhouse. First, if you buy a greenhouse kit, you will get a pattern for the greenhouse, plus all the materials to build it or set it up. Greenhouse kits have many different options for size, shape, and colors. Prefabricated greenhouses are easier to set up, especially if you do not have a lot of experience with building. The holes are pre-drilled, for example. If you can follow a pattern, you can build your own greenhouse.

There is a downside to using a greenhouse kit. You are limited to sizes and shapes your greenhouse will come in. Also, if you are not good with building or patterns, this may be a complicated undertaking. You may need help building the greenhouse of your dreams. You need to know that if you buy a greenhouse, there will still be other materials to buy as well. For example, if you are building your greenhouse in an area that gets a lot of sun, you may need to install shades, or the plants will get too hot.

If You Make Your Own Greenhouse

People who are handy with tools and patterns can also make their own greenhouses. Making your greenhouse from scratch is cheaper in the long run than buying one. You also can customize your own greenhouse, using different types of materials and styles. You get to pick how large or how small your greenhouse is–and trust us, you will fill up any size greenhouse you make. You can build the greenhouse of your dreams just from a pattern.

However, unless you are very handy with tools, building a greenhouse from scratch can be extremely difficult. Your greenhouse needs to be of solid construction, or it will blow over in the winter wind, and all your hard work will be for nothing. You also need to check your city’s building codes to see if you need a permit to build your own greenhouse.

Whether you choose to buy a greenhouse, and have it set up, or you choose to make your own, you need to make plans ahead of time. Choose where you are going to put your greenhouse carefully. Check to see the amount of sun or wind the area gets. Be sure that this is the perfect spot to place your greenhouse. Once you have decided, all you have to do is build it–or set it up–and enjoy all of your amazing vegetables, flowers, or herbs from your greenhouse.
