Using the example of a 3x4 greenhouse, we will show you several options for beds made of different materials, calculate their cost for September 2021, and share our experience.

Greenhouses 4, 5 and 6 meters wide, why buy?

Increasingly, customers are choosing greenhouses with a width of 4, 5 and 6 meters. What is the reason? Of course, greenhouses of this type are mainly used for growing large plants, and the undoubted advantage of these greenhouses is their high height compared to standard garden greenhouses, and this, in turn, allows you to grow tall tomatoes, grapes and other crops in more comfortable conditions. Thanks to the width of 4, 5 and 6 meters, the beds in the greenhouse can be arranged not compactly, but spaciously. For example, make a large medium bed and wide aisles or increase the number of beds in the greenhouse (more than 3 pieces). Also in such greenhouses you can install a table for working with seedlings, shelves for flowers and storage of garden tools.
