Greenhouse Questions

15 years ago

Hello all you green thumbs and I have a question. Im interested in building a good size greenhouse on my property but not for winter use. My land gets overrun with deer and rabbits on almost a daily basis and an open garden will create a constant war with these animals.

A greenhouse would resolve a huge problem but is a greenhouse practical for summer use in the mid-Atlantic area? Im looking to grow peppers, San Marzano tomatoes, butternut squash, melons, cucumbers, lettuce and many varieties of herbs.

Will a greenhouse get too hot even with ventilation?

Can bugs, fungus or other issues become a problem in a greenhouse during the summer?

Thanks in advance!
