How did your Planta Greenhouse improve your gardening experience?
I live in Alberta, Canada, where there is a lot of cool weather, wind, and a short growing season. It is wonderful to be inside out of the weather, and not covering my plants every time a bad storm is blowing through or the temperature dips below freezing. I can also grow things in the greenhouse that I can’t in my outdoor garden. An example is mini cucumbers.
What was your experience like buying from Planta Greenhouses? (was it easy to buy? How was customer service? etc)
Customer service was excellent. They helped me choose my windows and arrange delivery of my greenhouse to a drop-off depot near me. They also helped with some problems in a few greenhouse panels that were supplied. The customer service representative, Paulette, was great!

Being inside a warm, welcoming space full of growing plants that are beautiful and/or edible. We produced a lot of fresh food from our greenhouse, which is healthy and economical. We used no pesticides, and vegetables were fresh from greenhouse to table.
What would you say to a person considering purchasing a Planta Greenhouse?
I love my Planta greenhouse and highly recommend Planta as a supplier. The product is sturdy and attractive in the yard. Be sure to research the website and videos thoroughly before construction, and utilize Planta customer service if you’re really stuck. Construction is a bit time-consuming, but we have a 32-foot Planta greenhouse. It was slow and steady.

How did this greenhouse change your gardening experience?
I have never gardened indoors before. It is very pleasant to be out of the weather and hot sun and relax by spending time with my plants. I will have to experiment more with what grows well indoors, as it is totally different than an open-air garden.
What's your favourite thing about the greenhouse?
It is peaceful in there in the morning when I tend my plants. I can hear the birds through the auto-opening windows, and there is no wind or rain. I love being in there. The humidity and smell of the soil is also very pleasant. The birds cannot eat my strawberries.
