The seedlings shown above are too young to be kept outside in any kind of greenhouse, big or small. A nursery with a warm temperature and artificial light is a must. A greenhouse won’t make things easy : light will be OK but temperature can get very high if you forget to open it, watering will be more difficult. To sum it up a greenhouse requires constant attention when a timer and a thermostat will do most of the work in a nursery.
