Check everything we've learned while making our own greenhouse and tell you why IMHO, a homemade greenhouse is a much better solution. Read more at https://greencitizen.com/diy-greenhouse/

All-Season Growing My greenhouse allows me to extend the growing season — I can start growing earlier in spring and finish later in the fall. Since I’ve built the greenhouse, the spinach and Brussels Sprout season never actually stops. If you live in colder weather, you can also grow hot-weather vegetables like okras, cherry tomatoes, and Asian eggplants.
Pest Control Then, there’s the problem of pests. With the greenhouse, my pest control efforts are a hundred times easier. And since I don’t use pesticides, just natural remedies, having a sunroof over the plants protects the solutions from being washed by the rain.
Environmental Factor The homegrown food movement has already taken momentum in many parts of the world. The whole idea is to grow as much food locally and avoid transport emissions and chemicals used to keep the produce fresh during the overseas voyage.
Comfort Now this doesn’t apply for small and portable greenhouses, but having one where you can enter and move about makes gardening much more pleasant. Even when it’s chilly or even raining outside, I can relax and tend to my plants and have quality “garden time”.
