Commercial Greenhouses For Sale

The needs of commercial growers vary from those of their backyard counterparts. If you need to grow spring plants all year long, then a commercial greenhouse is a must. They come in various sizes and shapes for the average hobbyist to the serious professional nursery plant entrepreneur.

Commercial Greenhouse Kits

Commercial greenhouse kits come in various sizes and materials. Next to tiny 4 x 4 ft glasshouse to place in your backyard, Amazon has a wide range of commercial greenhouses for sale, ranging from 6 x 8 ft to 10 x 20 ft. If you can’t find what you’re looking for on Amazon, you may try other vendors. A lot of companies on today’s market specialize solely in selling commercial greenhouses and supplies, and the offer is quite varied.

Think of the budget and how much you want to plant before starting your shopping spree. Prices for a beginner greenhouse kit start at around $200 or less, and you should be ready to spend as much as $5,000 for a large glasshouse.

Commercial Greenhouse Supplies

Environmental control systems are a must-have in all commercial greenhouses. Depending on the size of the glasshouse and your budget, you can get anything from a single thermostat that operates a fan to controls that can monitor and manage an entire environmental system, including fans, heating systems and humidity controls.

Automatic vent openers are also a nice addition to any greenhouse. Whenever the thermostat detects a change in temperature, the device opens or closes the glasshouse’s roof vents. Amazon sells the only reasonably price product of the kind – the EasyStart Greenhouse – for $47.99.

Water pressure gauges are also good to have in your greenhouse. They are cheap – usually around $10 or less – so it’s just not worth the hassle to try and guess when the water pressure goes down.

Used commercial greenhouses for sale

You can always go for one of the used commercial greenhouses for sale with various vendors if you don’t have the budget to buy a new one. Amazon, again, can be your friend – they sometimes offer used commercial glasshouses for sale. In case you can’t find anything, try eBay, a lot of growers upgrade their greenhouses and sell the old ones for a fraction of the original price.

When buying a used commercial greenhouse, make sure you test all pieces and see if they are in good condition. You can fix a broken vent window or replace a defective water gauge, but if there’s anything more serious you may end up spending more money than on a new one. You could skip the testing part if you are buying from a reputable retailer, such as Amazon or a power seller on eBay, but if you plan to get a used glasshouse from a stranger’s ad you found on Craigslist then you would better drive over and see for yourself what the greenhouse looks like.
