ESSENTIAL GREENHOUSE KIT

Water butt

Take advantage of rainfall by installing a water butt – or two – connected to your greenhouse guttering. Watering with rainwater will save you money and is better for the environment. There is a wide range of water butts available to suit every style snd budget.

Automatic vent opener

An automatic vent opener prevents the greenhouse from overheating on sunny days. This is particularly useful in spring and autumn, when temperatures fluctuate widely during the day. Search online or talk to your local greenhouse supplier for options.

Staging & benches

Staging or slatted benches raise plants off the ground, avoiding cooler air. Most are designed at a convenient height for working and slats increase air circulation, thereby reducing fungal problems. Widely available to buy or you could even attempt to make your own.
