DaisyI said:Probably the most important consideration is the floor and drainage. Greenhouses are wet messy places. My last greenhouse had a paver floor over sand and drained down into the soil below but, it didn't have a way to get rid of debris over sills. Lots of sweeping and dust pans. My new greenhouse has a concrete floor with drains but, the drainage is into a French drain so I constantly battle trying to keep junk from going into the drain and clogging it. It would have been a much better plan to have a concrete floor slightly higher than grade with drains at floor level so the water and debris could be washed outside through the drain holes.
