How to choose the right greenhouse shade system
A good shading system can reduce electricity costs by retaining heat. They work along with fans and exhausts to create a temperature balance. Some tips to consider when choosing the right shading system are:
1. What's your objective of running the greenhouse?
This question might lead you to deciding key questions like how much you are willing to spend on shade systems and if its worth it. Certain types of shading are fixed. Other are alterable. Pick and choose which type would suit your needs.
Automated shades are available in the market these days. They save time and need just the click of a button to fall in place.
2. Think of ways you can give plants shade naturally.
Consider the placement of your greenhouse to take advantage of sunlight and natural shade. You can set up the greenhouse near tall bushy trees or at the side of your house where its shadow blocks out the light for a little time.
Consider exterior buildings such as garages, shops and sheds to help create shade. Be sure to factor in natural light for when the days become shorter, in the winter months.
3. Place your plants according to intensity of light.
This is particularly important to light-sensitive plants. Using furniture to block light has been long-practiced over the ages.
4. Layered greenhouse benches can give shade in its lower levels.
Adding greenhouse benches can add visual appeal as well as create some shade.
5. Think about the ease of cleaning when deciding your greenhouse shade system.
6. What is your climate?
How much greenhouse shading you need will also depend on your USDA hardiness zone. If you live in a hot climate - such as gardening zone 9b - it will be more important than if you live in an area with mostly pleasant summers - such as gardening zones 5 or 6.
Consider which greenhouse shade options will work for our situation and budget. Ideally, the best greenhouse shading system will have a mixture of internal and external shades to create the ideal level of light and heat needed within a greenhouse.

Ways to Attach Shade Cloth to Your Greenhouse
There are several ways to add shade to a greenhouse including shade cloth on the inside, shade cloth on the outside, shading paint on the glazing, roll-up shades, etc. We've found that shade cloth panels attached to the outside of the greenhouse are very effective. Shade cloth can be attached to the inside of the greenhouse but outside panels are better at keeping the heat out and are easier to install and remove.
