How Does A Greenhouse Capture Heat?
A greenhouse uses a special kind of glass that acts as a medium which selectively transmits
spectral frequencies. Spectral comes from the word “spectrum”.
In layman's terms, a spectral frequency can be defined in terms of the following principle: any object in the universe emits, radiates or transmits light. The distribution of this light along an electromagnetic spectrum is determined by the object's composition.
Therefore, the glass of a greenhouse traps energy within the greenhouse and the heat in turn
provides heat for the plants and the ground inside the greenhouse. It warms the air near the
ground, preventing it from rising and leaving the confines of the structure.
For example, if you open a small window near the roof of a greenhouse, the temperature drops
significantly. This is because of the auto vent automatic cooling system. An autovent is simply a device used by greenhouses that maintain a range of temperatures inside. This is how
greenhouses trap electromagnetic radiation and prevents convection (transference of heat by
currents within a fluid).
Curious about how the idea of a greenhouse came about? It goes back to the days of the
Romans, who - as history annals show - were the first people to create a structure to protect
plants. Using heated pits, they put up slabs of rock to form primitive greenhouses. The term
“glasshouse” which is the correct name of this structure, was adopted sometime in the 17th and
18th centuries.
At that time, however, the error was in believing that heat was more important than light for
plants to thrive. Structures were being built to exclude the entry of light, but by the time the glass tax of 1845 was abolished, the design of greenhouses started to change.
Builders realized then that a curved roof instead of a flat one allowed higher concentrations of the sun's rays, and that by using iron instead of wood, the greenhouse could be structurally
reinforced and made capable of absorbing more light.

Tips For Your Greenhouse
If you're growing carrots, beets, turnips and other root crops, they thrive well in deep boxes
which can be put under benches. Those that require tub-type containers are tomatoes, peas,
cucumbers and pole beans, while lettuce, or other low leafy vegetables may be planted in the
tub with the taller vegetables.
You can plant corn directly on the floor of the greenhouse, in a special bed prepared for it. To save space, you can plant pumpkin between the rows of corn.
Use room temperature water to water your indoor plants. Let tap water stand for a day to get rid of the chlorine substance. This way you avoid your plants getting brown tips.
Distribute crushed egg shells in your garden to stimulate growth. Sprinkling coffee grounds will add acid to the greenhouse ground.
Before bringing vegetables and fruits from the greenhouse to your house, rinse them well
outside; this way dirt and bugs stay outside and will not make your kitchen dirty.
To make more room in your greenhouse, use lower benches for starting seeds and transplants;
upper benches for growing flowers and specimen plants. Some vegetables, like tomatoes,
should be planted in a warm section of the greenhouse.
Regarding planting of seeds, be sure to water lightly for the first few times. Over watering may cause the seeds to come to the surface too soon, preventing them from rooting properly.
Preparation and production must be done in separate areas. Don't do general preparation on
the growing floor. This makes for a tidier greenhouse.
Here is a list of the largest vegetables that will need the most spacing in your greenhouse:
ð
bush type beans: minimum of five feet between rows,

ð
cabbage: a foot between rows,
ð
peppers: about a foot between rows,
ð
cantaloupes: two to three feet between rows,
ð
squash: two to three feet between rows,
ð
tomatoes and watermelons: minimum of two feet between rows.
