The growing season for a large part of the world is very short, giving need for additional resources to keep your green thumb going longer. You can build your own greenhouse using some of the various shelving systems that are readily available at your local building supply store. From the fixed, wall mounted shelving, made of glass, wood, wire metal or steel, to a wide range of open-ended freestanding shelving units.
The open-ended shelving units are great because no matter where you place them, you'll have easy access to your plants and flowers. These movable units are usually made of rust proof steel, metal, or aluminum, and can come in a variety of models.
Glass Shelving Brackets
Be sure and try to find the ones that are portable, having wheels on them for easy transportation and arrangement. When you can just wheel them outside during the daytime sunlight, them pop them back inside for the night time, your plants will thrive.
You can also just go out to your local hardware store and purchase all the individual shelving and brackets the would be required to make your own, or you can find some prefab systems that can be modified to fit your design needs.
Once you start to hang your shelves, you can quickly and easily change things around when you need to. Wire shelving is especially popular because it allows for any access water to simply flow through onto the plants and flowers below. This gives you doubling the water power, without using twice the water.
Wood shelving is not recommended for a greenhouse type arrangement. Although you can find lots of great wood products that look good, but over time they will begin to weather faster then a coated wire or metal shelf. The open-backed units are mostly made of steel, metal, or aluminum, all being rust resistant. Not only do you want them to be rust resistant, but they should also be coated to resist the harsh effects of the sun. It's a little different then say putting a closet organizer that will never be subject to the outside elements.
