Allowing to establish a real microclimate within it, the garden greenhouse is traditionally considered an annex of the garden. It makes it possible to extend the cultivation period considerably. It is therefore readily used for seedlings and cuttings in anticipation of spring plantings, but also to overwinter plants that are too fragile to face the frosts of winter. The greenhouse is not, however, reserved only for conventional crops: it is also an ideal environment for cultivating exotic plants, which would have difficulty flourishing in our climate!

Which garden greenhouse to choose?There are a wide variety of garden greenhouses. The most common is the so-called ” tunnel ” greenhouse. If it is very effective for sheltering seedlings and cuttings, it is often unattractive. To enjoy a quality greenhouse while beautifying the garden, we will therefore prefer the glass greenhouse. But in the harshest climates, we will rather bet on polycarbonate.

What is the ideal size for a garden greenhouse?

In addition, to effectively choose a greenhouse, there is no question of being wrong about the area! It must indeed allow you to have the necessary space for the type of use for which you intend it. If it is only a question of protecting a few plants in winter, a small area of ​​5 m2 will suffice. On the other hand, it is difficult to sow and take cuttings in too small a space! Moreover, if you want to overwinter a large number of plants, keep in mind that each one needs its living space, otherwise fungi and diseases will proliferate. Your greenhouse should also be well ventilated. Finally, depending on your region, certain options may be necessary: ​​heating or sun curtain, for example.
