Our patented greenhouse has been designed to be easily assembled. All but one step can be completed

by one person. You will need assistance from another person to attach the roof. Although the greenhouse

can be assembled in six to eight hours, we recommend you take your time and make it a weekend project.

These instructions include helpful hints and important information needed to safely assemble and properly

maintain the greenhouse. Please read these instructions completely before you begin.
