Best place in garden to put a greenhouse

Question

How do I work out the best spot in the garden to place a greenhouse?

Rob · Answer

A sheltered spot. Access to the outside of the greenhouse for cleaning. Not near trees or large shrubs to avoid debris falling on it/breaking glass plus green build up/algae/moss etc. Check out the run of the sun through the sky. Is it in a safe place for you/kids etc? Consider ball games, strimmers, safety etc.

The best place would be where the sun is most shineing throughout the day.

James · Answer

Generally, the best spot for a greenhouse is on the south or southeast side of the house in a sunny area that gets the most sun from fall through winter (November to February in most places). If this option doesn't exist, the next best location for the greenhouse is the east side.

So when looking at you garden work out where gets the most sun through out the day. And that will determine the ideal spot

Roger · Answer

Try to place the greenhouse as close to your house as possible so it,s easy to attend and get power and water too. Also try to avoid any shady areas of your garden.

Gordon · Answer

Ideally, greenhouses should be sited where they can receive uninterrupted sun throughout the day. Provide screening or shelter from cold northerly or easterly winds, which can keep temperatures low in spring and slow the growth of seedlings and young plants.
