How a Custom Greenhouse from NW Green Panels Can Boost Your Growing Season

Getting Ready: How to Prep Your Site for Your New Greenhouse You’ve ordered your greenhouse—how exciting! Whether you’re planning to grow veggies all year long, start seeds in the spring, or finally give your plants a warm home of their own, you’re about to create something special . We’re so glad you chose NW Green Panels to help make it happen. Our greenhouses are designed to go up quickly and last a long time—but first, we need a good spot to set everything up. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to help you get your space ready before we deliver and install your new greenhouse.  1. Pick the Perfect Spot Start by walking around your yard. Look for a place that: Gets lots of sun —at least 6 hours a day Stays pretty dry (no puddles after it rains) Is easy to reach with our truck and trailer If possible, face the long side of the greenhouse east to west —that way your plants get light all day long! 2. Make Sure the Ground is Flat and Firm Your greenhouse doesn’t need a fancy foundation, but it does need a level spot. Here are a few good options: Gravel pad – the most common and budget-friendly choice Concrete piers or blocks – good for long-term use Concrete slab or pavers – if you want a super smooth floor Whatever you go with, make sure it’s flat, not sloped , and doesn’t hold water. 3. Double-Check the Size Before we arrive, it’s helpful to have about a foot or two of extra space around the greenhouse. That gives us room to work and helps with future maintenance or cleaning. We’ll send you the measurements ahead of time—so you’ll know exactly how big the footprint will be. 4. Clear a Path for Delivery We’ll be bringing your greenhouse panels on a trailer, so we need a clear path to get to your setup site. Here’s what helps: Move any lawn furniture, toys, or garden tools Trim any branches that hang too low Make sure gates or walkways are at least 6–8 feet wide If there’s anything tricky about your property, just let us know—we’ve seen it all and are happy to plan ahead. 5. Thinking About Power or Water? Planning to add lights, fans, or a watering system? It’s much easier to run those lines before the greenhouse is up. If you’re working with an electrician or plumber, now’s the time to have them set things up. And if you’re not sure where things should go—we’re happy to give some advice. 6. Sit Back and Let Us Do the Heavy Lifting Once everything is ready, we’ll bring the panels and get your greenhouse assembled—usually in just a day or two. You don’t need to lift a finger. Just have your space clear, your site prepped, and maybe a chair nearby so you can watch it all come together (coffee and cameras welcome!).
