Cold Frames Greenhouse Kits
In agriculture and gardening, a cold
frame is a transparent-roofed
enclosure, built low to the ground, used to protect plants from cold weather. The transparent top admits sunlight and relies on the greenhouse effect to reflect
back radiant heat that would otherwise escape at night. Essentially, a cold frame
functions as a miniature greenhouse season extension device.
Cold frames create microclimates that provide several degrees of
air and soil temperature insulation, and shelter from wind. In cold-winter regions, these
characteristics allow plants to be started earlier in the spring, and to survive longer
into the fall and winter. They are most often used for growing seedlings that are later
transplanted into open ground, and can also be a permanent home to cold-hardy vegetables
grown for fall and winter harvest.
Cold frames are a great way to get things started in
the spring or anytime of year in colder climates and the perfect stategy for hardening off
seedlings. Little or no assembly is required with our cold frames and they ship for FREE !
