How to make a greenhouse wigwam with your own hands

The greenhouse differs from the greenhouse in that this structure is temporary and is intended for growing seedlings of vegetable crops or flowers. Now the environmental purity of products is very important. You can be sure of the absence of chemistry and nitrates only in those vegetables that are grown with your own hands.

It is absolutely not difficult to build a greenhouse with your own hands. Knowing how to arrange it correctly, the process of erecting a greenhouse on the site will not take a lot of effort and means, and the return in the form of expensive seedlings will be optimal.

For a greenhouse, an open sunny place is selected, and it is located the front side from east to west. In this case, sunlight and heat are used as much as possible. It is desirable that your greenhouse would be protected from direct gusts of wind.

Types and categories of greenhouse greenhouses

There are three categories of greenhouses according to the method of growing seedlings - soil, stelly and hydropone. Sparbles vary in terms of illumination, it depends on the throughput of the material, the presence of heating and the irrigation method.

1. Depending on the grown seedlings, the composition of the soil is selected. There are ready -made mixtures, but you can prepare it yourself from a mixture of peat, sawdust, compost, river sand and garden land. The soil should be loose and breathable, and to balance acidity, you can add fertilizers for seedlings.
2. Ground greenhouse - provides for growing seedlings directly directly in the ground. Such greenhouses are insulated and cold. In any case, it is recommended to make an embankment 20 - 30 cm high in the size of the beds and make a buffer zone from any insulation around the perimeter. Both organic and inorganic insulation from improvised means are suitable.
3. For a rack greenhouse, it is necessary to make a rack itself and boxes for seedlings. Boxes can be homemade from boards or you can purchase plastic ones in the store. Cellular disposable blocks for seedlings are very popular. They are not expensive and very convenient for growing any crops.
4. The hydropone greenhouse is the most difficult. Its equipment requires a system of irrigation, ventilation and heating. Boxes for seedlings are disinfected using a solution of potassium permanganate, coarse sand and crushed stone are cleared and calcined, and a seasonal nutrient solution is used.

Production of a greenhouse for seedlings "Wigwam"

The easiest and most popular in summer cottages is the greenhouse "Vigva". He is called that, for his resemblance to the famous Indian dwelling.

1. As a rule, it is used to grow seedlings on the ground. Wigwam has the shape of a cone or pyramid. The form depends on the materials used for the greenhouse. On a suitable area, bulk beds are made from prepared soil for growing seedlings, 20 - 30 cm high.
2. From a metal reinforcement, a wooden beam or even straight hillback branches, a greenhouse frame is made. They are simply broken under the slope into the ground and tied at the top. The frame is delayed with a dense plastic film and the input canopy is made. The perimeter of the greenhouse can be insulated with improvised materials.

Due to its shape and height, it can not only grow seedlings of garden crops in it, but also contribute to the vegetation of seedlings of fruit trees.

Smart or tent greenhouses for a summer cottage

According to the end contour of the profile, such greenhouses are triangular, pentagonal or resemble a semi -oval. They make greenhouses from various materials, collapsible or stationary.

1. A stationary greenhouse can be made from a beam or boiled from a metal profile of any cross section. With the advent of plastic pipes and galvanized light profiles for drywall, make frames for the greenhouse and from these materials. It will not be difficult to make a greenhouse with your own hands versed with the components as a tent. The ends of the profiles are equipped with fasteners for guide slats of the frame structure.
2. For pipes, you can boil nests - glasses of slightly larger diameter than the pipe itself. The end of the guide must enter the nest. To be easier to collect and disassemble the greenhouse, the ends of the pipes and the inner surface of the nest, smear with machine oil or solidol. On the upper rowing guide pipe, fasteners are welded with a Christmas tree under the required degree of inclination. Corner glasses are made two or three exhaust at an angle of 90 °, and intermediate “T” - figurative tees.
3. The roof and walls of the tent greenhouse are made not only from a plastic film. If the greenhouse is designed for reusable use, then it is better to apply plexiglass, maclonon or glazed frames. Glass frames, more often used in stationary greenhouses and greenhouses due to large weight and fragility of glasses.

Features of the design of the greenhouse "Butterfly"

It is not difficult to equip a rowing beam with loops such as port and make a simple greenhouse “butterfly”.

1. The greenhouse “butterfly” in the profile is no different from the tent or tent structures, but it is additionally equipped with opening with fraud windows. In such greenhouses, the entrance is not made, which allows us to significantly optimize the riding space. Access to seedlings for care and watering is carried out through opening window blocks.
2. Frames for mobile opening window blocks are made of wooden beam. For glass, block beams, the frame beam is made with a longitudinal sample and mounted with a glazing box. Orgagslo, maclonon or transparent plastic can simply be fixed with screws on a square beam, with a cross section of 2x2 cm. Two window loops are attached to the upper longitudinal rail, and in the lower part there are a handle and a sping. Small cracks and gaps that arose during the installation of such a design should not scare you. They will contribute to ventilation and air exchange in the greenhouse. Excessive humidity is not always useful to germinating seedlings.

Ways to heat the greenhouses of all structures

The most popular method of heating the greenhouse in the summer cottage is electric. Heating of greenhouses and greenhouses by steam heating is used for industrial purposes.

1. For heating with electricity, it is necessary to lay a waterproofed rubberized electric cable. At the cable output from the house, install an automatic bag to prevent closing and turning off the power in the warm time. In addition, indicate the gasket track, or preferably, enclose the cable in a special dielectric sleeve to prevent random mechanical damage.
2. Buenthia is an inexpensive and effective way of heating a greenhouse. The bottom of the greenhouse is covered with sawdust, fallen leaves or straw. Horse manure and a cultivated layer of soil are laid on such an ecological pillow. Heat is heated by manure, the greenhouse warms up well.
