How to Choose a portable greenhouse?

There are many portable greenhouses you can select from according to garden scale. We are a factory in China which produce these portable greenhouses as your requirement. The most common types as follow:

Portable mini greenhouse

A mini greenhouse is the smallest one. These greenhouses have shelves for plants and are often pegged to the ground. They are small and can be set up anywhere. If you have limited space and need to grow plants, this type of greenhouse is perfect for you.

Portable walk-in greenhouse

A walk-in greenhouse is spacious for an adult to walk into and organize plants as needed. It isn’t big enough to offer a lot of movement, but it allows you room for yourself. They can have shelves or be installed without shelves to place over plants in the soil. They seldom have wheels.

Portable Compact greenhouse

Compact greenhouses are made of sturdy materials and are often 50-65 pounds in weight. You can easily walk in and make use of features such as gutters, vents, shelves and lights. There are multiple doors, and you can move the greenhouse when needed.

Portable greenhouse with wheels

Nothing says portability like a greenhouse on wheels. Portable greenhouses with wheels look like portable mini greenhouses but are easier to move around. You can set these up on balconies and patios with no garden to peg the legs into.

When we decide to buy a portable greenhouse for gardening needs, except the type, you still need consider below factors:

Stability

Stability is an essential element for many people who live in areas where thunderstorms and heavy rains are expected. Certain things that provide better stability to portable greenhouses are pegs, locked wheels, and a heavier frame.

Shelving

Shelves are essential if you are storing your plants temporarily. Some portable greenhouses come with built-in shelves, while others can have shelves placed inside them. It is better if the distance between the shelves is adjustable so you can fix it according to your plant’s growth.

Color

The color of the external casing is essential for people who are using the greenhouse to help grow seedlings or protect smaller plants from frost. Although many people prefer the green covering option, since it reduces the light inside the greenhouse, you cannot opt for a transparent one.

Doors

Doors allow you to walk in and out of your portable greenhouse comfortably. If your greenhouse is too small for it to be a walk-in one, you need a wide opening to let you rearrange things. People prefer zipper doors for greenhouses with a fabric covering, but roll-up flaps are also popular.

Other features

Other features include hooks for hanging growth lamps and environmental control devices like humidifiers. These can help to speed up your plant growth and keep them in the optimal conditions required.
