OK, I am in the process of purchasing a greenhouse. I have found this fiberglass greenhouse. This is a 7 X 7. The one I'm looking at is 8 X 16. Does anyone know anything about them? Would it be be comparable to the polycarbonate. I have no idea what the thickness would be. Would it be hard to heat in the winter. I do know that the vents open automatically. They are asking $1000. but would probably take $900.

I have looked at the hoop greenhouses thru Farmtek which would require replacing the plastic every few years. I know the Fiberglass would last for quite some time. I'm just not sure what to do until I find out more about it.

How would I secure it to the ground? Someone suggested using straps like you would on a mobile home.

Would appreciate any info you have to offer....

Thanks :>)
