They are ideal for growing many types of vegetables during the winter months or out of season. If you have an urban orchard you can make a small home conservatory with scarce resources.<\/p>\n<p>Benefits of Home Greenhouses<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Making a home greenhouse is an economic idea.<br \/>\n\u2022 We can take advantage of old materials and recycle them.<br \/>\n\u2022 We can plant vegetables and vegetables out of season.<br \/>\n\u2022 The growth of our plants accelerates, as the greenhouse harnesses all the rays of sun.<\/p>\n<p>Steps to make a greenhouse<br \/>\n1. Choose a bright place<br \/>\nIt is the key for plants to grow strong and healthy. The space chosen should receive at least six hours of sunlight a day, especially during the morning, and be arranged longitudinally from north to south to reduce excessive radiation during the noon. In addition to lighting, the place would have to have a good drainage to avoid the accumulation of water.<\/p>\n<p>2. Make sure you have access to the services<br \/>\nThe greenhouse needs supply of heating, water and electricity. A good idea is to include solar panels on the roof, which in addition to being a source of clean energy are aesthetic and, in the long run, more economical.<br \/>\nAnother interesting option to reduce the environmental impact and the cost of the new space is to incorporate cisterns that collect and store rainwater.<\/p>\n<p>3. Use the right materials<br \/>\nUsually greenhouses have aluminum or wooden frames. While the former are more resistant and require less maintenance &#8211; ideal for those who have little time &#8211; the latter give space a more harmonious and natural.<br \/>\nThe walls must be covered with glass or plastic, with polycarbonate models being frequent. These are unbreakable and filter ultraviolet rays.<\/p>\n<p>4. Integrates interior design<br \/>\nWith some decorating strategies, the greenhouse can become a functional and attractive space. The ideal is to opt for accessories that bring freshness and warmth, such as wooden tables or wicker pots. If the goal is to add color and personality, recycled items such as painted tires or aluminum cans can be used.<br \/>\nBeyond aesthetics, it is important to organize the space for greater functionality: there is no lack of a work area where there are tables, benches, tools and seed beds.<br \/>\n5. Respect the care and maintenance tasks<br \/>\nThe well-being of plants depends to a large extent on the temperature of the greenhouse: it is recommended that the maximum does not exceed 30 degrees and that the minimum is not below 10 &#8211; it is important to have a thermometer to control it.<br \/>\nDo not forget to keep the cover free of dust, since dirt can interfere with the passage of natural light.<br \/>\nVia Home &amp; Health<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home greenhouses are able to generate certain conditions of temperature [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":725,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_meta":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-engl"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=727"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/727\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":728,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/727\/revisions\/728"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/725"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ranchonatura.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
