How to Build Your Own Greenhouse Fast and Easy

If you want to build your own greenhouse, but aren't too sure if you have the skills

to put one together, don't worry, hundreds of people every year take on this task and find out that it's not as difficult as it seems.

Now greenhouses come in a wide variety of styles. You can make a greenhouse from large fish tanks to transforming your garage into a gardener's paradise.

What I'm going to do here is outline how to start a more advance type of construction - just to show you how "advance" doesn't mean you need to be a professional.

Even in your backyard, most construction projects will need a foundation. For this example of an 8 x 8 foot greenhouse, we'll use wooden 4x4's and a few concrete stepping-stones, all that you can purchase in your local hardware store.

1. First step is removing grass, weeds, and rocks so you can level the ground. You don't want it exactly leveled, keep it slightly sloped so water doesn't settle under your greenhouse.

2. Within the area of your leveled ground, add a layer of small stones to help with seeping water.

3. Now outline your foundation with string and stakes. No need to measure anything yet. Just make a rough square outline.

4. To square your outline, measure diagonally from one corner to the other. Your outline will be squared when the measurements are equal.

5. Now add your bigger concrete stepping-stones. Spread them apart within your outline. Take a level and measure from stone to stone. To achieve a flat foundation, you will want to add or take out the smaller stones under each bigger stepping-stone, until everything is leveled.

Give yourself a pat on your back; you just put together a super solid foundation for a small greenhouse.

Now it isn't within the scope of this article to try to detail every step of a construction job. If you're looking for simple greenhouse shed plans or want to easily build your own affordable and attractive greenhouse click on the following link to build your greenhouse.
