Greenhouse – Lighting

Q: For Christmas I received a new portable greenhouse. How critical is the placement?

A: Generally speaking, more sun is better. You can control how much sunshine and heat gets inside the greenhouse by using shade cloth on top. But if light is limited to start with, supplemental lighting is very expensive. I have lots of greenhouse tips at http://www.walterreeves.com/gardening-q-and-a/greenhouse-for-homeowners/.
