Can You Use Your Greenhouse in Winter?
Greenhouses are ideal for winter gardening. With proper insulation and access to sunlight, they can protect cold-tolerant plants and extend your growing season. Although not necessary, you can add heaters, fans or grow lights if you choose to get the right temperature and light control to make the most out of your growing efforts.

These plants are easy to manage and help you learn how to control temperature, humidity and watering in your greenhouse.
