The sun is not only your source of light for growth in the greenhouse, but your source of heat. Thus, if growing year-round in cold climates, you need to capture enough solar energy through your glazing to heat the greenhouse. Glazing is just a word for transparent materials, such as glass or clear rigid plastics.
A solar greenhouse is a specialized structure or shed that uses sunlight and the greenhouse effect to create favorable conditions for plant growth all year round, irrespective of the weather conditions outside the greenhouse. It is primarily of two types:
Glass greenhouses are the original precursor to the contemporary greenhouse dating back centuries. They make an excellent option for dedicated horticulturists whether they be backyard, commercial or industrial growers. Glasshouses are the most aesthetically pleasing greenhouses and often feature as part of outdoor entertainment setups.
