Greenhouse - affordable made of glass

I want to have a greenhouse in the garden, I already have ideas, it would be good if the whole thing is made of glass. Only with glass the whole thing is a bit expensive, does anyone know a cheap manufacturer, or should I build it myself? How could I build it myself? thx cu doran

Hello Doran,

if you are handy, building it yourself is definitely the cheapest option. With very cheap greenhouses, the quality of workmanship is usually poor and after a year at the latest, you are just annoyed.

if you have no experience in the field at all, you should first choose a foil tent. if you manage that, then only should you consider getting a greenhouse. furthermore, you should keep in mind that a greenhouse is quite expensive, and if you only want to use it as a hobby, the costs might be too high.

what is the greenhouse supposed to be for?

There are different types of greenhouses. The traditional greenhouse is made of glass. Then there is the polytunnel and the polytent. But even the cold frame, tomato house, and even the plant cloche are, in principle, all greenhouses. The choice always depends on the intended use. In addition, it depends on how much money one has to invest. I think it is always good to start small and not go all in right away. ;)
