I've been thinking about getting a greenhouse to extend my growing
season by a month or so on either end. Does any one have any
experience with them and have any suggestions about what to get?
Costco has a $300 coupon next week for a 8'x12' that will be $1300
after the discount. I assume at that price it's going to be
polycaronate not glass. They are also selling an $8000 glass green
house that's much nicer looking but I'm not sure that I'm up for
spending that much.

Google for pop-up greenhouses.

Thanks, that's and interesting solution. They're cheap and you can
even
get them at Home Depot.-

Mine lasted about 6 years. :-)
The sun will eventually rot them, but they are far more affordable.

Cheers!-

How did you organize things in the greenhouses? Did you plant in the
ground or did you keep everything on racks?-

Ps, I'm in the process of tearing down the three I have but am going to

try to salvage the frames and just use those rolls of clear plastic
over
them. I'll post how it works out, if it does.

Greenhouses & Gazebos

It's that time of year when many homeowners are thinking of new ways to
add some sparkle to their yards and gardens.

By filling up their yard with a structure? yeah, sure, right.

A new gazebo, greenhouse, shed or even a treehouse to your yard will
become a centerpiece and a topic of conversation for years to come!

So will the over priced, lousy, cheap piece of crap that you end up
buying.

Whether you're looking to relax outdoors in the comfort of your new
gazebo, or start a new gardening operation in your new greenhouse, the
possibilities are endless!

Greenhouses and Gazebos is an independent website designed to help
homeowners discover the wide variety of options available in outdoor
buildings today. Inside this site you'll find information about
products, installation, maintenance and other useful tips related to
owning a new greenhouse or gazebo.

Google "greenhouse" or "gazebo", if that is what you want, but

don't support predatory spammers (like the above), who come to put up
advertising on our newsgroup.

There are some great ideas about growing your own fruit and vegeatables on www.mysod.co.uk It is mainly for UK gardeners but I think een people in the US will get some benefit from it.
I am finsing this forum difficult to navigate my way around but some of the gardening comments on here are extremely good. I didnt realise there were so many keen gardeners in the world. Great to see.
