Hi everyone
Welcome to this edition of your Gardening Weekly, today's edition is entitled:
Greenhouse for All Seasons
QUOTE: We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.
- Abraham Lincoln
In many climates growing plants in the winter months can become quite frustrating, and if you are finding that you are in that situation then it might be time to consider getting a greenhouse.
Greenhouses are available in many different sizes and there are some very compact versions that will suit most budgets. Having one of these greenhouses tucked away in a sunny corner of your garden will be a godsend when the weather dictates that you would normally have to stay inside rather than venture out into your garden.

With the added benefit of being able to control damage that might have been caused by birds, insects and the weather, greenhouses can also save you a lot of money in the long term.
They are excellent for growing seedlings and also for extending the season that you will be able to grow particular plants by controlling the climate.
You should always set your greenhouse in a position that gets the maximum amount of sunlight throughout the day while allowing easy access to water and electricity.
If you have a particularly windy property make sure that the door to the greenhouse is facing away from the prevailing wind.
When deciding on the size of greenhouse that you need always try to get the biggest one possible as once you see the benefits of having a greenhouse you might find that you will be wanting more and more room.
That way you will be able to spread out your plants giving them more room to breathe and reducing the risk of disease.
Most good greenhouses come with in-built ventilation systems, which are essential to reduce the temperature when it begins to rise. If you decide to build your own greenhouse, ventilation is one of the most important factors that you need to consider.
