• Try to invest in quality supplies wherever possible so you end up with a greenhouse that can provide a very rewarding gardening experience.

Shading

1. Sunlight is good for plants but it is bad to keep them exposed to the sun.
2. Proper shading for your greenhouse can protect these plants.

5. Shades are also designed to filter out those harmful UV rays.

Covering

1. Certain plants and flowers may need an extra layer of protection and that is why there are greenhouse covers available for sale.

3. The functionality is similar to the tent covering which is there to keep the water out.
4. These covers will make sure that the heat is retained while keeping the harsh elements away.

Bubble Wrap

1. You can normally find bubble wrap in cardboard boxes and packages shipped from other areas.
2. There is a special type of bubble wrap called greenhouse bubble wrap and it is a considerably thicker than standard bubble wrap.
3. Use this for insulation purposes which are needed for the cold winter season.

Staging

1. 

   The greenhouse staging is where you can get a bit more flexible and creative as there are no real standard recommendations for staging.
2. But the fact remains that the plants in the greenhouse have to rest their heads somewhere and the type of shelving will determine that.
3. If you are using the greenhouse for commercial purposes, make sure you have long rows of shelving and surfaces so you can showcase a larger variety of plants you wish to sell.
4. You can also choose the material of the shelving like aluminum or cedar.

Digital Thermometer

1. It is important to know the exact temperature of your greenhouse to ensure that your plants are in the best possible growing environment.
2. Digital thermometers can help you determine that so you know if you need to turn on the fans or open the greenhouse doors.
3. It also helps to get a soil thermometer as well because seeds need to germinate at the right soil temperature.
4. These types of thermometers will help you determine if the soil is too warm or too cool, they are very important green house accessories.

Heating Systems

1. 

   Heating units help maintain the optimal temperatures of a greenhouse.
2. Your choice of a heating system should depend on the size of the greenhouse.
3. If you are managing a small greenhouse, consider getting a heating unit.
4. Central heating systems are only necessary for larger greenhouses.

Watering System

Adding too much or too little water is never good for your precious plants.
A good greenhouse watering system can solve the problem. If you haven’t built your greenhouse yet, you can eliminate the worries of having a watering system by simply installing faucets and drains. Make sure that your greenhouse is constructed in such a way that the floor drains well as it is not good to have puddles within the greenhouse.

• If you prefer the traditional hand watering method, consider getting a watering want if you have any plants in baskets hanging high.
• If water is an unnecessary expense to you, you can rely on downpipe kits to collect rainwater and store it in a container.

These are just some of the most important supplies for any type of greenhouse.

Once you have identified the type of greenhouse you want to set up, consult other guides so you can get into the specifics of crucial supplies for those particular greenhouses.
