Portable greenhouses FAQs
Can I convert a plastic greenhouse into a glass
greenhouse?
Yes. The frame must be sturdy enough to hold glass though. Glass is
much heavier than plastic and requires certain building specifications
for the frame. If you are building a greenhouse that you want to convert
to glass later, be sure to adhere to construction requirements for a
greenhouse with glass panels.
What is the main functional difference between plastic and
glass paneled greenhouses?
Glass transmits more heat. In fact, plastic only transmits forty percent
of the heat that glass does. Glass is more efficient, but plastic is
cheaper.
Are there any greenhouse options that I can take with me when
I move from my house?
Yes, if a greenhouse is not a fixed outbuilding, you should be able
to move it?hoop greenhouses, many smaller plastic tent-like greenhouses
and box greenhouses fall into this category.
