I'm having a house built this winter, and I plan on purchasing a greenhouse kit sometime early next spring. I'd like to see if anyone on this site has ever had the experience of ordering a kit from somewhere, getting it trucked in via freight to your home, and installing everything yourself. I'm not new to growing orchids, but I'm definitely a newby when it comes to greenhouses. I have a bunch of questions, so if anyone is willing to answer even one or two of them, I would most appreciate your help. 1) Is there such a thing as an all-inclusive kit, or do most of them just contain the basics for constructing the physical structure itself? 2) Do most of you who own a greenhouse have a water source plumbed inside of it, or do you simply run the hose from the spigot on the back of your house into the greenhouse? 3) Is it a good idea to have a cement slab poured in advance to accomodate the structure, or is it advisable to simply have the greenhouse sit on a bed of gravel, brick patio, wooden deck, etc.? 4) How do you run electricity from the house to the greenhouse to power the
misting system, heater, vents and fans? 5) How easy/hard, on a scale of 1 to 10, is it to build a greenhouse from a kit? The size of greenhouse I'd like to get is somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 to 115 square feet. Thank you in advance to anyone who cares to respond.
