Dennis Denny jokes that he has “a serious gardening problem.” As a passionate home gardener, he was looking for a way to spend more time doing what he loves. A GrowSpan Estate Deluxe Large Greenhouse gave Denny the solution he needed to overcome Blackfoot, Idaho’s harsh weather and short growing season.

Before purchasing the greenhouse, Denny relied on starting plants inside his home. While effective, it took up valuable living space and limited how much he could grow. He ultimately turned to GrowSpan after extensive online research to create a dedicated environment where plants could thrive.

“The final selling point was the very competitive pricing,” said Denny.

Today, the greenhouse enables Denny to grow tomatoes, superhot peppers and a variety of other vegetables in grow bags, pots and traditional garden rows. It has also transformed what is possible in his climate.

“The greenhouse has allowed us to double our growing season,” Denny said. “If we felt so inclined, we could grow year-round now.”

Once the greenhouse’s environmental controls and shading were dialed in, Denny found it easy to grow virtually any type of vegetable he wanted. He has also been impressed with the structure’s ability to withstand Idaho’s demanding weather conditions.

“The polycarbonate panels are surprisingly resilient against high winds,” said Denny. “We’ve had sustained winds of 30 mph with gusts as high as 80 mph.”

In addition to the greenhouse’s performance, Denny appreciated GrowSpan’s customer support throughout the purchasing process. “The fantastic customer service and prompt delivery,” he said, stood out most, adding that GrowSpan employees “will bend over backwards to help anyway possible.”

By providing a durable, dependable growing environment, the GrowSpan Estate Deluxe Large Greenhouse has given Denny the freedom to grow more crops, start earlier in the season and enjoy fresh produce long before many of his neighbors begin planting. As he puts it, “While my neighbors are busy planting seeds, I’m enjoying fresh garden salads and salsas.”
