The Complete Guide to DIY Greenhouses - Black & Decker

Growing your own food is becoming increasingly important for everyone, for good health, self-sufficiency, and even to help the environment. Black and Decker, The Complete Guide to DIY Greenhouses by Chris Peterson, will provide you with guidance on building a greenhouse, hoophouse, cold frame, or accessories.

The book will help you determine the best location, size, and type of greenhouse for your landscape and finances. It will help you plan for the possible lighting, irrigation, drainage, ventilation, and climate control depending on your situation and needs and even offers insight into current greenhouse technology to help you grow successfully. The book also includes a discussion of the variety of building materials available and is loaded with full-color photos and illustrations to clearly explain the how-to. The project styles range from simple cold frames to Victorian greenhouses.
