Greenhouses and closed soil are the foundation of intensification in plant production, allowing for the control of biological growth cycles of crops regardless of external weather conditions. For the agronomist and the passionate gardener, greenhouse management is a tool for climate control that combines engineering solutions, agrochemical calculations, and a deep understanding of the physiological needs of plants. Competent design of structures, the use of heat-accumulating materials, and the proper selection of lighting allow not only for the optimization of production costs but also for the creation of a stable environment for growing both vegetable and ornamental flower crops.

This collection contains expert materials covering all stages of working with protected soil: from the construction and insulation of facilities to the preparation of specialized substrates and conducting agrochemical soil analysis. Readers will find practical recommendations on organizing production areas, distributing crops according to their temperature regimes and light requirements, as well as creating compact home structures, such as mini-greenhouses and terrariums. The articles will help master modern installation technologies for covers and methods for precise calculation of fertilizer application rates, ensuring a professional approach to the setup and operation of greenhouses of any scale.
