Greenhouses

Having a greenhouse at home, even if it's not exactly big enough for commercial produce production, can be pretty exciting if you love to garden. Finding the right greenhouse supplies to keep your fruits, veggies, plants and herbs happy and healthy isn't always an easy task, though.

Check out the selection at Ace Hardware to find all of the materials you need to have a greenhouse for home use. Use the tool bar to refine your search by brand, price, top-rated products and even clearance offerings.

Start with a Seed

Having a greenhouse for home use can be rewarding, but starting with seeds and growing full plants can be difficult for a lot of people. Knowing where to even get the right greenhouse supplies and which ones will really work can be tricky.

Shop Ace Hardware to find greenhouse supplies to help your seeds grow.

• Try seed starter trays. You can use starter trays to grow one type of plant or mix and match. Small seven and 18 seed pot kits are ideal for new greenhouse users. Buy multiple trays to give yourself the best chance at a successful grow this season.
• Scale your operation up with larger seed starter trays. Trays up to 72 cells are available for home greenhouse use.
• Don't forget peat pellets! Peat pellets can help you quickly plant and transplant your seeds when it's time to move them to a larger seed tray.

Helpful Hint: Label your seed trays clearly with a waterproof permanent market. Make sure you also include the date you added the seeds to your trays. It's easy to forget what you planted and when you planted it.

Get Serious

If you're serious about making the most of your greenhouse, you need greenhouse tools that will help you grow. Ace offers a variety of high-quality items to improve the efficiency and output of your greenhouse.

• Add propagation heat mats to your setup. Heat mats can raise the temperature of your roots 10 to 20 degrees above the ambient temperature in your greenhouse, making them ideal for fall and winter.
• Use electric germination stations to help your seeds reach maturity faster. Shop for germination states with domes to reduce moisture-related issues and control the humidity for each plant.
• Install a lighting system to spur production of your plants. Artificial light systems can give your plants extra light to help them grow faster.

Whatever you grown in your greenhouse, having healthy plants can take some hard work on your part. Shop Ace to find everything you need to turn your seeds into plants and keep those plants growing all year round.
