small, nor too large. The recommended size for a

region. Pitched roof is ideal for cold regions
but otherwise, rounded roof works fine.

or a metal like galvanized steel or aluminum.

Select A Covering Material

greenhouse covering material, like glass, rigid
panels, fiberglass, double wall plastics or
plastic films.
Glass covering is the traditional and the most
advantageous choice as it is easy to maintain and
looks good.

Select Flooring
It can be something simple that goes well with
the frame and the covering, like a gravel floor
or concrete tiles.
Gravel flooring considered to be a more
appropriate choice, as a substantial floor goes
well with a substantial structure.

Install An Electric Heater
The heater will help maintain the temperature in
the greenhouse. Ideally, plants need the
temperature to be above 55 Fahrenheit to grow

Along with the heater, install fans in the
corners to simulate airflow and vents in the
ceiling for ventilation.
