Grow green vegetables at an earlier date. True, it is not very easy to create such a structure: you need a foundation, a frame, and of course, the cover itself. However, experienced gardeners recommend to arrange in the greenhouse high beds that promote the intensive development of the root system of crops, and as a result, increase the yield. However, for its construction you will need formwork, that is, a body. It can be made from various materials. But more for this purpose is suitable polycarbonate, characterized by strength, resistance to high temperatures and affordability. We'll talk about how to make beds in a greenhouse made of polycarbonate .
How to make the beds in the greenhouse
At the beginning of the work in the greenhouse, you should plan the disposal of your beds. First of all, determine from which side of the world they reach out. It is believed that it is optimal for vegetable crops to plant beds from west to east.
Thinking about how to make beds within the greenhouse, calculate their position and size. The most effective and convenient for work are beds of up to a width of 45-65 cm. In a narrow greenhouse, two beds are created, in a wide can be three or even four. Each bed should be divided with adjacent passages about 40-50 cm wide, which is enough for free walking around the greenhouse.
Creating a fence of polycarbonate beds in a greenhouse
Before installing the bed frame in a polycarbonate greenhouse with your own hands, prepare a support for it. In this capacity, what can be found on the farm is old cuttings of corners, pipes, fittings, etc. From the edges of the future beds of greenhouses along the entire length stretch a thick thread, so that the body was installed exactly.
Under the thread in the ground, beat the supports so that from the surface of the soil there are columns with a height of not less than 30-50 cm. Polycarbonate sheets are simply inserted into the ground for support, thus forming a bed.
For fans of aesthetics, even in the garden in the hardware store you can buy ready-made greenhouse beds with an aluminum or galvanized frame, to which polycarbonate is fixed by bolts or screws.
At the bottom of the ready-made beds you can lay a net that will protect your planting from moles and mice. Then we put a drainage layer from the expanded clay, clay shards, branches. Top with a peat-sand mixture, followed by mixed with biofertilizer (humus) fertile soil.
