How do I prepare my greenhouse site?
Most people purchase 4 x 4 lumber and bury it so the top is at ground level. They fasten the greenhouse to the wood framework by purchasing their own screws. Some people build a wooden deck and screw the greenhouse down to that.
How long do the greenhouses take to assemble? Do you need more than one person?
The 6x8 and 8x8 sizes could take 5-7 hours. The longer Snap and Grow Greenhouses will take longer. It is best to have two people and to follow the directions very closely.
What tools are needed to assemble the greenhouse?
A small ladder, Phillips screw driver and rubber mallet are needed. Some use silicone spray as a lubricant to help slide in the end fittings.
How do the greenhouses hold up in the wind and snow?
The Snap & Grow was tested at 50 mph when anchored well. It is key to anchor the greenhouse well to the ground. In high wind areas it is best to run a strap or cable over the top with separate ground screw anchors.
How do the greenhouses ship (type of carrier)? How does the greenhouse come packaged?
The greenhouses ship either UPS or FEDEX. They are packaged in heavy duty cardboard boxes and may come in more than one box, depending on the size of greenhouse ordered.
Can the greenhouse be extended (made longer) at a later time?
The Snap & Grow greenhouses can be added on to in 4' increments. You can add on at a later date however the center of the greenhouse would have to be dismantled to do so. There is an additional vent window with each 4' addition.
How do I clean the greenhouse panels?
You can clean the panels by spraying water over them and/or gently wiping them with a very soft cloth.
Is the greenhouse portable? Can it be disassembled if I move?
The greenhouse can be disassembled and moved. They are rather lightweight so you may be able to simply pick them up to move them.
