Extend Your Time Gardening at Home With a Cool Greenhouse
Wondering what to give yourself this Christmas? What about a build-it-yourself greenhouse with some quality plant markers to identify your plants? A greenhouse will allow you to get something you’ll be able to enjoy 12 months a year. For those who enjoy gardening at home, there’s nothing like having your very own greenhouse right in the back yard.
What is a Cool Greenhouse
A cool greenhouse doesn’t mean that your greenhouse is trendy, it only means that it is unheated other than by the sun. Heated greenhouses can run up large power bills while a cool greenhouse will provide lots of winter growing options without adding to your winter heating costs. In fact, many gardeners choose to construct their greenhouse right up against their home in order to heat-share. So while a cool greenhouse isn’t an inexpensive present, neither is it one you’ll have to keep paying for winter after winter.
What Can You Grow in a Cool Greenhouse
The list of wonderful things you can grow in your winter greenhouse is inspiring. Whether you are a vegetable or flower enthusiast, you’ll enjoy gardening at home in deep December and frigid January if you know what to plant. Here’s a starter list of suggestions:
Flowers
Amaryllis and Christmas cactus may not be big surprises on the winter grow list, but you can also enjoy nurturing beauties like hyacinth, pansies, azalea and primroses in your cool greenhouse.
Vegetables
Nearly any cool-weather veggies will do wonderfully well in your winter greenhouse environment. Think about enjoying leafy vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, swiss chard, parsley, kale and cilantro as well as delicious root vegetables like beets, radishes, turnips, garlic and carrots. You can also successfully produce tasty broccoli, brussel sprouts, cauliflower and cabbage.
Why Build a Cool Greenhouse
If you prefer gardening at home, you already know that fresh tastes best. You also know that potting around with growing things is good for the soul. Gardening isn’t a pleasure that needs to be limited to a few brief months of the year. A greenhouse extends your growing season. You can grow to harvest all winter or merely use it to get a jump-start on spring planting. Either way, your own greenhouse gives you more of what you like best about gardening.
