WORKING FROM THE GROUND UP
DID YOU KNOW?

as a heat-sink slowly releasing the
heat where you need it most – at
the pot level.

ground style or kneewall style green-
house is a matter of personal prefer-
ence. Glass to ground greenhouses
are the least expensive to build.
Greenhouses built on a kneewall cost
more up front, however they provide
improved energy efficiency in the
winter months.
