FAQs

What is the recommended ground anchoring method?

Anchoring materials are not included. Common methods include using ground stakes, rebar, or concrete footings depending on your location and soil type. It is essential to secure the frame firmly to the ground. Consult a local specialist for the best method.

Can this greenhouse withstand snow?

The roof of the greenhouse is not designed to withstand heavy snowfall. It is best suited for use in climates where significant snow accumulation is not common, or the structure should be cleared of snow promptly.

How do I clean the polyethylene cover?

The PE cover is easy to maintain. Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.

What is the density of the PE cover?

The density of the PE cover is 140 g/m², which provides good resistance to UV rays and tearing.

Is the assembly process difficult?

Assembly requires time and attention to detail. It is recommended that at least two adults assemble the greenhouse. Follow the provided instructions carefully.

What are the dimensions of the ventilation windows?

Each of the 4 side roll-up mesh windows measures 40 cm (Length) x 40 cm (Width).

Can this greenhouse be used year-round?

While the greenhouse extends the growing season and provides protection, its suitability for year-round use depends on your climate. It is not designed to withstand heavy snow loads, and extreme cold may still impact plant growth without additional heating.

Troubleshooting

Greenhouse is unstable or rocks in the wind.

Ensure the greenhouse is properly and securely anchored to the ground. Use appropriate anchoring materials for your soil type and consult a professional if needed. Check that the frame is fully assembled and tightened.

Pe cover tearing or deteriorating.

Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme UV if possible. Ensure the cover is not stretched too tightly over the frame, which can cause stress points. Replace the cover if significant tears occur.

Excessive heat or humidity inside.

Open the roll-up door and side mesh windows to increase air circulation. Monitor temperature and humidity levels, especially on hot, sunny days.

Difficulty opening or closing the zippered door.

Check for any obstructions around the zipper track. Ensure the frame is square and not warped, which can misalign the door.
