Of course, the first thing to mention is safety, particularly if there are small children at home. A greenhouse should be kept locked up when it is not in use so that children cannot enter and gain access to any of the dangerous items that are very often stored in there like pesticides and gardening tools, etc.
During the colder months, a greenhouse often requires additional heating. This is another safety concern. If you use an electric heater make sure it is suitable for greenhouses. Keep this in mind when using any other electrical appliances in this space and make sure they are appropriate for outdoor use. It is also a good idea to unplug them when you are not using them to minimize the risk of fire.
Greenhouses are designed to provide the ideal environment for growing plants, they do this by retaining light and heat. Good ventilation is also needed, otherwise, air could become too humid and stagnant making the greenhouse too hot for plants to survive and encouraging fungi to grow.
From time to time you may discover a leak in your greenhouse. To stop moisture accumulation, which will encourage insects, mold growth or other harmful pathogens, it's important to fix any leaks straight away.
It's clear to see that proper greenhouse maintenance is essential to creating the ideal place for spending time enjoying your precious plants and flowers.
