Ordinary greenhouse glass is extremely thin and the slightest chip or crack can end up with you losing lots of it in a gale. Toughened glass will reduce light levels by a small amount, but not as much as you'd lose with polycarbonate sheets. I don't think, altho someone may correct me, that it will affect temps in the GH in the winter. If you can afford it I'd go with the toughened glass.
