Cold Frame Double-Miniature Greenhouse Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The cold frame has served its purpose very well. I can use it as a starting point for plants and be well ahead and hopefully more economical with plant purchases.
There is a problem with the doors. The henge design does not work well so every time one of the tops is lifted it becomes misaligned and will not drop back into place without a great deal of careful realignment. This problem might be easily remedied by engineering larger interlocking henges (greater diameter, smaller slit).
I'd also suggest that the person who writes the assembly instructions should assemble one or two of the units before writing the directions. While I'm not sure I could do better, I might suggest color coding better lettering of parts. Permanent marks would help as I need to disassemble the unit in hot weather for storage and reassemble it next fall.
So, I'd recommend this product with the above reservations.

Gardman R691 4-Tier Greenhouse Staging Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was not sure if it would work out and once it was together I was worried if I had a heavy wind it might fall all down but it turned out to be exactly what I wanted. Easy to assembly and seems sturdy. I am only giving it a 4 star because I was hoping the shelves were stronger but it seems to be holding up really well with all my plants.
Great Product and hope this product will come back on line because I would like another one.

Gardman R688 Walk-In Greenhouse Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It took about an hour to assemble it and get it all set up. It was easy to do by myself and the metal poles and plastic connectors are all labeled. The instructions are on the outside of the box, which I didn't care for, since they can get torn in shipping, but mine were fine. They were easy to follow, since it is just a labeled drawing with a few sentences.
I have it on the south side of my house on a concrete patio. On the inside, I tied down a cynder block in each corner to keep it from blowing away and it is doing a great job. I also bought a heater and thermostat for it. At night, inside the greenhouse the temp stays in the 40s, even though the temp outside is in the low teens. During the day, even though the temp is in the 30s, it gets up into the 80s and quite humid inside the greenhouse. I'm in central NC, so the sun is fairly strong and does a great job of heating it up during the day, but once the sun goes down and the temp drops, you'll need a heater (and thermostat) in it to keep it at a specific temp, which I bought at Greenhouse Megastore. I bought the Portable Electric Heater, 120V, Item Number: HT-2000 ($49) and the Portable Prewired Thermostat, Item Number: CT-1000 ($48) and both are doing a great job.

Gardman Rainbow Garden R687 4-Tier Mini Greenhouse Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Greenhouse Four-Tier Mini / B000NCTGQE
I bought this greenhouse to start seedlings in the house before transplanting them outside for spring, and also to host a little herb garden in the kitchen area.
Firstly, the measurements listed here are accurate. This is a very large unit, of respectable quality, and very affordable. I have yet to find another unit this size and quality online or in catalogs that doesn't cost twice this much. In fact, this same greenhouse is selling in some places for double this price, plus shipping, so Amazon has quite the bargain here.
Secondly, the greenhouse is incredibly easy to put together. We had it out of the box and set up in less than half an hour, with no onerous tools required. The shelves are a thin metal lattice, to let sunlight filter down to the bottom levels, but the metal is strong and feels very sturdy. The cover has enough lee-way to slip on and off easily, as well as ties to hold it in place, and extends well to the ground, to act as a barrier to curious house cats and naughty puppies.
However, and here's where I docked a star, some extra assembly is really required here. The shelves don't attach into place - they lay on top of the shelving bars, and it is absurdly easy to unbalance a shelf such that the shelf tips over and drops all your plants on the ground, spilling dirt and seeds everywhere. I had this happen and was not too amused. Don't let this put you off your purchase, though, as there is a simple solution: Buy some cheap cable ties (for example, Belkin 7.5IN Multicolored Cable Ties 52 Pieces) and use them to cinch the shelves in place. I used 6 ties per shelf (one in each corner and two in the middle) and the shelves are now completely sturdy and will never shift or move on me. And the cable ties are easy to cut, if you ever need to disassemble your greenhouse during a move.
So, bottom line, definitely buy this greenhouse for the bargain that it is and enjoy it immensely, as I am mine, but do remember to buy the cable ties (or something similar) to ensure that your pots won't fall and break.

Hydrofarm CK64050 Germination Station with Heat Mat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This item is essentially a plastic base and clear top (very flimsy) with a heating pad that the base sits on. It's adequate for starting plants from seed, but my main complaint is that for what you get, it's way too expensive. I believe a fair price for this item would be around $20, NOT $40. If you do decide to purchase a germination station like this one, buy the one with the taller top - it doesn't take long before the new plants start running into the 2" tall lid.
