Acedar+greenhousemakes+an+attractive+addition+to+your+garden.+and+should+be+placed+in+an+area+with+plenty+of+natural+light.Ensure+the+greenhouse+has+easy+access+to+it+and+around+it.+to+enable+essential+glass+cleaning+and+general+maintenance.
Place+thecedar+greenhouse+kit+on+a+level+piece+of+land+with+good+drainage.+Take+into+account+existing+paths+and+utilities+such+as+electricity+and+water.+Having+a+water+supply+at+hand+avoids+carrying+heavy+watering+cans+from+the+tap+to+the+greenhouse.
Choosing+a+Foundation+&+Flooring+Material:
- Dirt-+A+dirt+floor+is+the+most+inexpensive+flooring+option+but+it+can+be+messy.+However.+water+will+be+absorbed+easily+and+you+can+benefit+from+the+natural+heat.

- Concrete-+When+considering+using+a+concrete+floor.+we+recommend+seeking+out+a+professional+to+pour+the+concrete+and+be+sure+to+add+water+drains.+Concrete+floors+also+are+great+for+holding+heat+and+easy+to+clean+and+maintain.+The+downside+of+having+a+concrete+foundation+is+that+it+is+permanent+and+more+costly.
- Brick/Stone-+Brick+or+stone+floors+are+also+a+good+option+providing+you+leave+adequate+spacing+between+the+bricks/stones+to+allow+water+to+drain+and+absorb+into+the+ground.+Bricks+and+stones+also+hold+heat+and+are+a+good+choice+if+cold+weather+is+going+to+be+an+issue+for+your+greenhouse.
