I wanted something that looked reasonably nice (Victorian style). Distributers sell them here in the US but they order them from Belgium. Belgian made, US Sold lol.
It's easy to get those half circle tunnel ones but not a fan of those, my goal is to be able to sit in there and have coffee, grow some "vegetables", citrus, etc.
We got glass, I think it will serve us better in winter as it warms up more quickly and no kids other than my kids at the moment but they will know they will get destroyed if they break something. Virginia has really warm/humid summers and can be warm up to October and winters can have a couple weeks in single digits but not often, usually in 20-30's F. I will probably install a small electric heater similar to what one would put in a garage, etc.

And massive by my neighborhood. Have to build a patio large enough to fit it.

I don’t know what your climate is like there, from what you said, similar too mine on the west coast here, coldest month averages mid-high 30s. You might get more sunshine in winter which helps. But generally in really cold climates, people steering away now from the traditional Victorian all-sides glass greenhouse (even though they look amazing), to heavily insulate at least the north side. Might be more of a Canadian thing though. Also the ideal is to match the glass angle on the south side to that of the sun at its lowest, weakest point of the year.
I had a greenhouse here on the coast before, just a cheap one too to keep my mandarin and lemon trees alive through the few really cold days we have each winter. Would like to build a proper one myself eventually, a couple hundred square ft, and use forced air through buried pipes to heat it enough to grow more citrus.

We are growing citrus (orange/lemon) as well as a ton of veggies. Our contractor building our patio will install two electrical outlets that I will build the greenhouse over. That way I can install an electric heater to “try” to grow in the cold seasons too.
I will post picks in about 3 weeks when it’s all done. I can’t wait lol
Awesome. Love it. Can’t wait to see.
I’m 7b/8a region, But unfortunately my property is a little cold microclimate on its own that is more like 7a/7b so most citrus won’t survive outdoors in the ground in colder winter years. Found that out the hard way. Kept mandarins and lemons alive through two winters and then had them die in a real cold snap. Lol
Thankfully my fig trees, pomegranate bushes and pineapple guava bushes seem to come through winters unprotected just fine.
My parents live 15 minutes away on a little island in the Strait, and they probably have 8b winters there lol. Fuckers.

Banana peppers sound good. What are you doing with all the peppers? Make a chili sauce? Eat them as they are? Put on pizza?
I once made a chili sauce, can't remember the strain, but my mate was leaving the kitchen with tears in his eyes and with difficulty breathing. Needless to say, no one ever used it.

My grandparents from Czech and former Yugoslavia (Serbia, technically) always canned peppers. My dad does it, now I think it is my turn to start trying to do it. My goal is to grow enough this season to can a ton to last me throughout the cold months. I put them on on sandwiches, pizza, etc.

I was only joking Bro. It's too much of a hassle, and customs would probably ask me for some imaginary fees
