Greenhouses and Garden ShedsApr 16, 2009
By T. Hibbs The description of this book said that the book included plans and instructions for building greenhouses. While it had beautiful photographs of traditional glass greenhouses, which is what I want to build, the "plans" were for plastic covered greenhouses over pvc pipe. Had I been able to "look inside" more of the book, I would have saved my money. This book, while pretty, is functionless. What a disappointment.

Informative book with great ideas!Mar 20, 2009

"dustdevilchaser"
After having read several greenhouse books, I found this one to be better than all of the rest. It has very good illustrations and really practical ideas for both greenhouses and garden sheds. I wish I had invested in this book before I started building a greenhouse...

By C. Shimp this book show great pics of greenhouses, from small country sheds to palatial glass atrium buildings. Only wish there were blueprints for some of the smaller ones.

a must have for greenhousesMar 19, 2010
By S. Francia I originally borrowed this book from the library and once I had read it, i just had to have it. It contains everything you could want to know about greenhouses including where to position it, structure design options, internal layout options,heating, watering,lighting,as well as growing plants, flowers and vegetables,the lot. It also covers cold frames and hot frames as well as garden sheds. Whether you are planning to build your own or buy a greenhouse kit, this book will still provide lots of information you need to know to be successful with greenhouse growing.
