Farming Methods

GREENHOUSE

Growing Season- One of the main advantages to growing in a greenhouse is that it offers you a longer growing season.

Temperatures don’t vary as much within a greenhouse, since the sun’s radiation is trapped in the enclosure, retaining the heat within the structure.

Growing seasons can be extended, even in cold climates on.

Garden in Any Weather

Keeping up a garden in bad weather can be difficult. With a greenhouse, you don’t have to worry about this since everything is covered. Even if it’s pouring rain outside, you can garden and keep dry.

Grow a Wide Variety of Plants

You have the ability to grow a wide variety of plants when using a greenhouse. It allows individuals to enjoy experimenting with exotic plants that are not found in the local area.

Protection from Pests and Predators

The production from pests and predators by the greenhouse is another huge advantage.

• Pests and predators like moles, deer and squirrels can be easily kept out.
• Smaller pests, like certain rodents, can be kept out with the addition of traps and screens.
• Strong greenhouse plastic can be purchased from online retailers (like Simply Plastics, for example), which can make the process much easier.

Create the Optimum Growing Environment

With a greenhouse, you have the ability to create the optimum growing environment for plants, whether you’re growing herbs, vegetables, flowers or other types of plants.

Creating an optimum growing environment helps you to enhance the growth of plants, giving you the benefit of healthier, better producing plants.

Protect Plants from Bad Weather

Bad weather can end up destroying plants, even in the best tended outdoor garden. Bad weather like high winds, dust storms, thunder storms and blizzards can all cause damage. However, a greenhouse offers plants a layer of protection from the elements.
