Hi, sorry if this isn’t an allowed post/if someone has discussed this before, if so please direct me to that post. I’m getting a place I can have a greenhouse at for the first time ever and I know next to nothing about them. I plan to put a variety of different plants in there, all positioned best for them of course. It gets both very hot in the summer and very cold in the winter where I’ll be. Does anyone have any tips to deal with these things? I figured for the summer I’ll make sure there’s a top tarp or something to even out the direct sun and have it off for winter but I don’t really know if that’s smart or not. I want a big greenhouse but not big like an industrial one you’d find at a farm. Does anyone have a specific brand or tools they have bought for the greenhouse or of the greenhouse? I’ve seen a few from like Home Depot and stuff but I’m not really sure what’s best, and I as mentioned a million times need something that can deal with the weather changes for all year round healthy plants.

Edit to add, I don’t mind at all building my own so if you have material recs and must haves let me know.

Edit 2 to add: I’m in zone 6 (I apologize I didn’t add that, I didn’t know that was a thing)
