The question how to build the greenhouse the hands, interests all summer residents, not persons interested to pay for services of masters. If it is about the seasonal shelter for seedling, everything is solved quickly. For creation of framework and covering of special skills it is not required, only correctly picked up materials and accuracy in work are important. However it is more difficult to build the year-round greenhouse on the base, in this case the help of professionals can be required.
What greenhouse to choose
The most available option for giving – seasonal hotbed on timber frame construction. Metal arches can rust, the metal covered with anticorrosive alloy is much more expensive. Plastic tubes are short-lived, besides they can be bent or break from strong wind.
Wooden greenhouses are deprived of similar shortcomings. For their construction it is possible to use the remains of bar of any diameter or sub-standard boards. The tree processed by impregnation does not decay, does not crack, correctly constructed design with guarantee will serve decade and more. The greenhouse can be folding, but is much more comfortable construct stationary construction on the simple base. It will quietly worry winter, and plants in such shelter perfectly feel to the late fall. At the correct organization of heating the wooden seasonal greenhouse without problems turns into year-round.
How to build the greenhouse the hands of tree
Before starting construction, it is necessary to pick up the suitable flat platform. The construction is desirable to arrange so that the sun lit hotbed throughout the day. For protection against wind it is possible to attach the greenhouse to the shed, the summer kitchen or other utility room. It is important to trace that the capital building did not stir the correct insolation.
Easy continuous footing will be suitable for the greenhouse from bar. It is not necessary to strengthen it, the wooden greenhouse sheathed by polycarbonate or film will not turn out too heavy. The arch form for wood structure is used seldom. It is much more convenient to collect rectangular framework with double-pitch roof. That who has some construction skills, can make the greenhouse by Mitlayder's technique. Its split-level roof has convenient difference for installation of transoms.
The hole for the base is dug out by the sizes specified in the drawing filled up with fine gravel and filled in with pesko-cement mix. On corners the stakes designating regions of future greenhouse are driven in. The framework can be collected directly on the base.
Before assembly the bar is cut according to the greenhouse sizes. Not to be mistaken, it is necessary to make the drawing in advance. Preparations become impregnated with antibacterial structure, are processed by mordant. It is convenient to collect framework by means of self-tapping screws, metal plates and corners. The place for door and window leaves for airing is surely left. Doors and window leaves fix on metal loops.
For covering it is better to use cellular polycarbonate. This material is easily cut, does not break, well protects plants from cold. Those who wants to save can replace sheets of polycarbonate with double polyethylene film, but such covering should be changed every year. You should not insert normal glass into the greenhouse – it is very brittle. Tempered glass is more durable, but is significantly more expensive.
The ready greenhouse can be painted or processed protective varnish. It is necessary to arrange correctly beds, to think over the system of watering and illumination.
