Guide to Spring Greenhouse Kit Selection

April showers may bring May flowers, but Mother Nature may have other plans this year! The weather is wonky this year with unexpected snowfalls, late frosts, and periods of unprecedented warm spells! With all this weather-related mayhem going on, a greenhouse kit may be just what the gardening doctor ordered!
 
Greenhouse kits come in all kinds of shapes and sizes, and a greenhouse kit is available for all types of gardeners. Even if you live in a cramped apartment, you can benefit from a cold frame greenhouse kit!  Many greenhouse gardeners add a portable greenhouse kit to their gardening supplies to house overflowing crops or protect outdoor plants during strong or unseasonal weather. There is a greenhouse kit for you- no matter what your gardening needs!

Types of Greenhouse Kits

Permanent Hobby Greenhouses
These greenhouse structures are designed to hold up to the elements to keep you plants safe and thriving. They are available in a variety of sizes, but for tight spaces, you can find a variety of compact sizes to choose from. Hobby greenhouses are a fixture in your yard and plants can be kept in them all year. Many people use their greenhouse to start seed early in the spring or to overwinter their container plants. A permanent greenhouse is a great place for gardeners to escape the dreary weather throughout the year.

Portable Greenhouse Kits
Portable greenhouse kits are very popular. These greenhouses vary in size from small enough to house a single plant, to large enough for a whole army of crops!  The nice thing about portable greenhouse kits is they can be folded up and put away in storage when you don’t need them. Another advantage is their light weight, making them easy to move from area to area.
 
Lean-To Greenhouse Kits
Lean-to greenhouse kits are great for those who want to add a greenhouse to an existing structure, but want the least amount of hassle. Greenhouse kits come in various sizes to fit most existing structures, and most kits can be customized if need be. Lean-to greenhouse kits come with everything you need to get started, and are ideal for new greenhouse gardeners.
 
Mini Greenhouse Kits
Cold frame or mini greenhouse kits are perfect for those who live in cramped spaces. These kits are perfect for starting seedlings or growing cooking herbs and small flowers. These versatile greenhouse kits can fit on a deck, in the grass, or even over an existing vegetable garden. Some are specially designed to be easily folded and stored while others are designed for better protection.

No matter which type of greenhouse kit fits your style, each one of these kits is a valuable addition to your gardening collection.
