Paprika and Chili Pepper
Both paprika and chili pepper are well suited to grow in a greenhouse. You sow seeds in the spring when it is 20°C or more. When the seedlings emerge, you move them into small pots to grow before planting them in larger containers. You can harvest in late summer and early fall.
Citrus Fruit
These are often considered difficult to grow, but in reality, they are easy to care for and do well in frost-free greenhouses where the white flowers will give off a sweet scent. For fruits to form and ripen, it must be at least 10°C. Do not plant cuttings. They will not bear fruit until they are too large for the greenhouse. Instead, buy a young tree and plant it in either special compost for citrus trees or in compost mixed with coarse sand. Water generously in the summer, but more sparingly from fall to spring. It is also the time for pruning.
Cucumber
Until recently, we mostly grew cucumbers in a greenhouse, but now there are hardy hybrids that can also be grown outdoors. However, it is easier to grow the traditional snake cucumber in the protected environment that a greenhouse provides. You can start harvesting as early as midsummer. Seeds should be sown lying on their side at 20°C, and they should grow at a minimum temperature of 15°C. Later, you plant them in greenhouse beds or special bags. The vines need to be either tied to tall sticks or suspended hanging from strings from the ceiling.
Tomato
Being able to harvest homegrown, sweet, sun-warmed tomatoes is one of the best things about growing in a greenhouse! There are many different varieties of tomatoes, so feel free to try until you find your favorites. You can sow tomato seeds in containers or directly in the soil. Remember that the soil for tomato plants should never be dry. Side shoots must be removed regularly, and the main stem must be supported by string or sticks. The main stem should be pruned when it has five to six trusses.
Herbs
Herbs are a delicious flavor enhancer for almost any type of food, and the greenhouse is perfect for less hardy herbs, such as lemongrass, which is a popular ingredient in Thai cuisine. When the herb plant stops being productive, you can dig it up and plant it in a pot. With even temperature and plenty of light, warmth, and water, you can get it to grow again.
Basil
Basil grows particularly well in a greenhouse as it requires a protected place, warmth, and light. Feel free to buy some fully grown plants that you can use immediately, while also trying some more unusual varieties that can be tested when they are fully mature. Basil should be fertilized with freely-drained compost, and they should be watered in the morning. To make them lush, you should harvest by picking from the top of the stems.
Lettuce
LeavesIt is easy to grow lettuce, and it comes in many different varieties. Lettuce can be sown early and can tolerate down to -5 degrees. Start by sowing 15-25 seeds with 3-4 cm spacing. When the lettuce is 4-5 cm tall, you should plant them in rows with about 25 cm spacing. As you eat the lettuce, plant new ones. Then you have lettuce for the family throughout the summer.
Strawberries
When strawberries are grown in a greenhouse, you avoid the threat of slugs and other pests. They also do not rot due to excessively wet soil. This also provides better yield and the berries tend to have better flavor. However, the plants must be replaced every year. The plants in pots are placed in the greenhouse late in the winter or early in the spring. When they bloom, they must be pollinated by hand using a brush or brush. Afterwards, the plants should be fertilized weekly with liquid special fertilizer until the fruits begin to turn red. They should be picked when they are uniformly red.
