Is the greenhouse made of porous material that will allow rain to pass through and water the plants inside?

No it doesn't. And if you live somewhere really hot I wouldn't suggest using this one without some type of shade over it, because I love in texas and the heat literally cooked the plants. It's a nice green house but it is more suitable for those who live in milder weather conditions.

No the material is a sturdy plastic meant to shield plants inside from the elements and provide sun for warmth. I am sure you can set up misters inside to water any plants you want to grow inside though.

No it is not porous it is plastic to maximize the heat inside the greenhouse. It was meant to protect my potted plants inside during the winter from the frost. So no you must go in and water.

Absolutely not! I would NOT waste my money on this greenhouse, again! It did not last even a month it is a piece of junk.Seams started to rip within a month

We bought ours a month ago and installed a plant in a pot inside of it. The overgrowth tends to mask some of the planter. At a distance it is very rich looking. And even close up it is very nice. It should last a long time and withstand the weather. It has a raised screen drip pain inside however water did collect inside even though we checked with a soil moisture tester. It is like a resin feel. It is not cheap plastic looking.

No. The canopy material is porous and will allow water to come through. In the rain I don't notice hardly any water coming through as the material sags some towards the middle. I was however surprised as to how gracefully the canopy handles the wind. Good Luck

Translucent would be more accurate, as you can see light/shadows quite well. Plenty of light gets through if you're needing it for a greenhouse, but it isn't clear like glass.

It does hold up well to sun, wind, and cold weather conditions. We used it to cover a greenhouse we constructed.

It's not completely clear, it's opaque. Designed to let the light through. Works well for greenhouses.

The sides and back of the greenhouse have a flaps at the ground level that is about a foot in length.... they can be covered in dirt or rock/cinder blocks to keep animals out. The front they might be able to dig under. I like this greenhouse and great priced. I would put up a cheap field fence and you would be golden!

I bought it for the purpose of using in a cold frame. Seedlings that were started indoors are ready to go outside to be tempered for the greenhouse (that is not built yet!)

Yes, the outside is a vinyl like material and has worked to keep mine dry in light rain.

Recognizing that this is a fairly inexpensive choice I would still answer yes to your question although I think to prolong its life you might consider taking it down and storing it for the summer months. I built a treated lumber deck for mine and use the greenhouse store my outdoor potted plants during the winter months. I bought an inexpensive ceramic heater and put it in the greenhouse surrounded on the bottom and three sides by common bricks to shield the heater from combustible materials. This is my 2nd year and so far very pleased. Depending on where you set it up you will have to anchor it so it doesn't blow away in storms.

It is somewhat porous, it may block a light rain for a while, but a heavier rain with any wind will start to come through.

I'm sorry but I don't have an answer for you. We couldn't use our greenhouse because it was blown apart twice in a span of two weeks. It's boxed back up and in our shed collecting dust.

No not really. It needs to be bought indoors when it rains etc. it is made of canvas.

No, it is perforated and allows rain to come through. Also, after 6 months, high winds tore it to pieces.

The greenhouse can be anchored to a cement floor. The screws/anchors for this are not included with the greenhouse, so you would need to purchase those locally.

Closest we ever got to rain was wet grass and it stayed dry. But I don't think the design would stay dry in actual rain. It's a very open design and would get wet inside I think.

Hi, yes it can. I bought one last year and had a successful 24'x8' wide greenhouse overwintering tropicals. Just started it again tonight.
