So, your greenhouse is already installed and leveled. However, it is too early to plant seedlings or seeds there. First you need to do a few simple tricks, So that the whole structure lasts a long time and gives a good harvest..

1. Cut off the weed greenhouse First of all, we must cut off from the main greenhouse the weeds that grow around it: wheatgrass, ox, nettle and others. It's easy to do. burying a curb ribbon around the perimeter of the greenhouse. You need to place it in the adjacent ground for 15-20 cm. The tape is guaranteed to prevent the appearance of unwanted wild plants and significantly facilitate the operation of the structure.
   
   
   
   
   
   To do this, dig a small trench around the perimeter of the greenhouse. Then we put the tape inside and gently sprinkle it. The most suitable time for this is spring, when the land is quite loose. Top recommended tape with a stapler or a bar. Otherwise, weeds will be able to break through the cracks.
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Plan and install beds inside the greenhouse The height of the beds It depends on what soil the greenhouse is on.. If you have heavy and cold soils with a lot of clay, you should make high beds. Yes, and being in the greenhouse and caring for plants in this case will be much more pleasant. If you have excellent black soil, then there is no need for this.
   
   The width of our greenhouse is 2.5 m, so the beds turned out to be 80 cm wide, and the width of the passage between them is 60 cm. How convenient is this design? There is enough space even to freely enter the room with a trolley with soil. By the way, the soil in the greenhouse is desirable to completely change every 3 years.
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Installation of tapestry If you are going to grow tall cultures (tomatoes, cucumbers) in the greenhouse, be sure to install tapestries. To them in the future, you can tie ropes along which plants will reach up. To do this, simply attach tapestries along the entire length of the greenhouse on both sides. A wire, cable or any rope will do.
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. Take care of the air. Having a greenhouse, be sure to think about how it will be ventilated. A few windows will be enough. Modern technologies allow you to install opening windows that automatically control air circulation in the greenhouse. This option will be a real godsend for those who come to the country once a week or less, because the mechanism will do everything itself at the right time.
