Over the past few months, Dianne and I from Growing Crazy have been spending a lot of time at Keder Greenhouses’ HQ, putting their display greenhouses through their paces and growing a wide range of crops across the seasons. Our goal has been simple: to see how these structures perform year-round and how effectively they can help extend the growing season, allowing us to keep harvesting fresh ingredients for as long as possible.

Keder Greenhouse is a UK-based designer, manufacturer, and installer of the strongest, most resilient greenhouses on the market, engineered as a complete premium growing system. Every Keder structure is purpose-built to endure the UK’s harsh and unpredictable weather while delivering consistent, high-performance growing conditions year-round.

With a Keder greenhouse, you get more time in the garden each year. It holds warmth, softens light, and keeps steady when the weather turns. That way, short gaps in the weather become longer months of growing potential.

An improved growing environment will help product an increased yield of higher quality crops. All of the following elements ensure that your plants have the best environment possible

Ensuring your plants are cared for in all conditions in the garden is key to confident greenhouse gardening. With the right routines, plant protection keeps growth steady through frost, wind, and pest pressure. A Keder greenhouse helps enormously. Robust, high-tensile frames stand firm in severe winds; whilst insulating, diffused cladding maintains steady temperatures and keeps light gentle on leaves.

Europe is heating up faster than anywhere else on Earth, in fact it is increasing at double the global average.

Use a simple four-year cycle. Start with legumes to fix nitrogen. Follow with brassicas, which use that nitrogen for leafy growth. Their strong roots loosen the ground, preparing it for potatoes the next year. Potato foliage helps suppress weeds. Then grow root crops like carrots and beetroot. Loop back by planting legumes where roots were, as they enjoy the loosened soil.

Are you dreaming of a new Eco-classroom for your school, a living classroom, a place for science and sustainability to come alive.

Healthy plants begin with ideal conditions. Light, warmth, and shelter are important parts of every leaf and flower taking shape. The material of your greenhouse sets that stage each day. Keder’s advanced cladding is designed to create a friendly, consistent environment where plants can simply get on with growing. Here is how it helps, and why other mainstream greenhouse materials struggle in the same situations.

As Storm Floris sweeps across the UK with unseasonably strong winds, both Amber and Yellow National Severe Weather Warnings are now in place, bringing potential disruption and danger, especially to northern parts of the country.
