Headhouses and potting buildings in North Florida

Headhouses and potting buildings in North Florida: what to know

A headhouse is the working building beside the greenhouse, and it is the part most like a standard steel building. It holds the potting bench, soil and media, tools, packing space for orders, and the electrical panel and controls, all out of the humidity of the growing area. A slab floor, a roll-up door a cart or pallet jack can pass through, and a walk door into the greenhouse are typical. Insulation keeps it workable in summer and cuts condensation over stored supplies.
