Choosing and Building Your Ideal Greenhouses
There are several Greenhouse sizes, types, size of the project and design structures to choose from. The factors to consider for choosing our greenhouse for sale are many; let’s delve into basic reasons.
- Size – We construct various sizes including 8 x 15 m, 8 x 24 m, 8 x 30m, 16 x 24 and 16 x 40 m. We also deal with custom sizes provided we find them to be stable.
- Types – You can choose from wooden or metallic Greenhouse for sale. The matters of concern here normally stem from the cost of materials. Wooden greenhouses are way cheaper and easier to construct. Metallic Greenhouses are more expensive depending on size, but they are stronger and more durable.
- Design – The design you choose to go with depends on the crops you are growing and landscape or area. The wind direction, ventilation size and temperature of the area decides whether you need a vent or tunnel greenhouses. For very hot areas, you require a vent greenhouse to enhance aeration.
- Size of the Project – The extent or size of your greenhouse farming dictates the size and number of greenhouses to construct. For a big farm you will need several greenhouses (multi-span greenhouses) to enhance efficiency and cost reduction. A small space requires a single greenhouse structure.
Setting Up your Greenhouse Step-by-step
Setting up your Greenhouse is a simple process but requires a lot of caution and preparation before you embark on the actual building.
The process of constructing a greenhouse begins the moment you have acquired all the necessary resources you need.
Guided Approach for a Proper Greenhouse Setup
Choose a Proper Location
A proper location means a good place which can enhance proper functioning of a greenhouse for a long time without damage. A good place should be a flat area with a good drainage and wind direction. Clear all thick vegetation that could hinder the construction of a good building.
Measure the Area for the Desired Size of the Greenhouse
The desired size of the Greenhouse must be known for proper planning and estimation of the required budget.
You need to measure the size of the actual area you are planning to start with to get the exact size of the polythene cover.

Make Holes for Erecting Poles
Make holes a15-30 cm deep and 15 cm wide for fitting wooden poles or galvanized steel tubes.
Attach Metal Frames or Wooden Poles to the greenhouse poles – For a metallic greenhouses in Kenya by Aqua Hub, you must fit metal frames to the steel tubes using nuts and screws. On the other hand, for a wooden greenhouse you need to attach wooden structure using nails.
Fix the Polythene cover to the Greenhouse Structures
Fix the greenhouse polythene cover to the greenhouse structure once it has been properly attached together. The structure needs to be strong to hold the polythene cover and smoothed or enhanced to avoid damaging the polythene cover.
Attach the door and Ventilation.
Doors and ventilation spaces are included in the plan and measurement of the structure. A door should enhance movement in and out of the greenhouse.
A ventilation needs to be big and suitable for air exchange and temperature control in the greenhouse. Vents can be covered using insect nets or shade nets depending on the crops grown in the greenhouse.
