Greenhouse Gardening: How a Beginner Can Grow Fruit and Vegetables all Year ROUND.What You Must Know to Build your Greenhouse

The idea behind greenhouse dates back to the Roman period when Emperor Tiberius requested every day an Armenian cucumber to be eaten; for this reason, his gardeners had to use a device very similar to those used today in modern greenhouses.

Nowadays, Greenhouse Gardening is one of the most common activities in the world. Why is it working? A greenhouse decreases the rate at which thermal energy is discharged from its structure by stopping heat absorbed by convection from leaving its environment. Usually, glass or plastic is the substrate for greenhouse building so that that sunlight can travel into it. This sunshine is essential to warming the greenhouse because it heats up the atmosphere within the greenhouse.

The primary purpose of a greenhouse garden is to prolong the growing season of the coveted crops and plants. Fans of horticulture should also be passionate about greenhouses because it helps them to grow plants and flowers throughout the season, which can then be brought into the home. A greenhouse garden of plastic or glass can be installed cheaply or expensively, and look attractive or clearly utilitarian.
