I got this with the intention of using it while away on an extended vacation. I have plants that require frequent watering because the climate here is dry. I needed a way to retain moisture for these plants for two weeks. In the past I would drench the plants with too much water, or I would move everything into a darkened bathroom. I even tried tenting with large garbage bags. None of these methods worked well. This winter I decided to give this greenhouse a try.
The assembly was easy (instruction sheet included), so no complaints there!
I thoroughly watered the plants before leaving. I had this set up in a room facing east, but it being winter, there wasn't much sun to speak of. I also included an extra small bucket with water for additional moisture.
Coming back after two weeks, all the plants looked great! My orchid even bloomed!
The greenhouse can also be used outdoors, but I won't be testing that. The set does come with anchors so that the whole thing can be secured to the ground outside. The structure is very lightweight, so I can't say how well it will hold up on a windy day.
For my own purposes, though, I'm giving it five stars!
