I wasn’t able to finish installing one side as we are only there for a few weeks and I had other projects. But the quality of the greenhouse meant I could leave it somewhat unfinished over the winter without concern.
We added a heater so we can grow 4 seasons now. We have a heavily treed lot so I oriented the greenhouse to get the most sun in the winter and the leaves on the trees provide shade in the summer to help with over heating.
Our Planta greenhouse gives us a jump on spring growing by letting us grow veggies and flower starts. Nice to have your own fresh food when the snow flies.
Very little work to maintain it and keep unwanted animals out of my vegetable garden and eating fresh is the main reason and this days with the price of fresh produce we eat so much better.
I am looking forward being able to grow in a more stable environment, without risk of hail storms or having our crops become a buffet for the native wildlife.
The Planta Greenhouse improved my gardening experience by allowing me to be able to grow during the winter months extending my season and also by allowing me to start earlier is the season.
It allowed me to start gardening earlier and go longer after the frost season. I was able to have watermelon and cantelaupe, which I haven’t been able to grow in my garden, due to early frost issues.
