What does “no base required” mean, which surfaces will phoenix go on - a hard floor, grass, or hardcore gravel?
Phoenix Greenhouse 8 ft Wide (No base required)
Greenhouses
I’m trying to understand how to prepare my ground for a greenhouse. I have plenty of room, but no prepared surface yet. One area is a hardcore gravel driveway beside a garage building, unsure if I would have to put a concrete floor or foundation down over the gravel first. Another is on open grass, but on a slight slope that might need to be levelled a bit beforehand. Again, not sure if foundation must be built first.

Hi there, thank you for your question. The phoenix greenhouse comes with a steel base which is fixed to tge ground with anchor pins. To install the base, you would need to dig holes at the corners of the greenhouse footprint (to accommodate the pins) which will be filled with concrete once the base has been levelled. I would suggest the most level site you have would be better as there will be less work preparing the site. However, if you are handy at DIY, it is a very neat job to pour a ring foundation for the greenhouse and bolt the rail on top, time spend on a nice level foundation makes the assembly of the greenhouse much easier. The foundation should be 1ft wide x 1ft deep with some steel rebar added for strength. I hope this helps. Andrew
