How
to Build Your Own Greenhouse
by Roger Marshall
Paperback: 256 pages ISBN: 158017647X
Publisher: Storey Pub; 1st ed (December 30, 2006) |
| After determining the type and style
of the structure, Marshall progresses, chapter by chapter, through the construction
elements of the greenhouse — from choosing a site, to laying the foundation and
determining which glazing material will work best. Plumbing, heating, supplemental
lighting, misting, and automatic venting systems are also covered. The final section of
the book includes detailed plans for nine actual greenhouses, from a simple cold frame to
an elaborately detailed framed, detached structure. |

The
Greenhouse Gardener
by Anne Swithinbank, John Swithinbank (Photographer)
Hardcover: 192 pages ISBN: 0711224358
Publisher: Frances Lincoln; 1st ed (May 30, 2006) |
| There are many ways of using a
greenhouse and a gardener can adopt one or all of them. In spring, you can start all kinds
of young plants from seed; raise tender perennials to fill gaps in the garden; give young
vegetable plants like beans and sweet corn a head start; sow early lettuce while the soil
is too sticky to work outdoors. During spring and summer, you can raise greenhouse crops
like tomatoes, cucumbers, aubergines and chillis. You'll be able to over winter tender
plants such as bananas and cannas. And the greenhouse can be a showcase full of beautiful,
unusual and exotic plants. |
