gróðurhúsi
Gróðurhús, often translated as greenhouse, is a structure with walls and roofing made primarily of transparent material like glass or plastic. Its primary purpose is to create a controlled environment for growing plants. The transparent covering allows sunlight to enter and warm the interior, while also trapping heat, creating a microclimate that is warmer and more humid than the outside. This protection from adverse weather conditions like frost, strong winds, and heavy rain enables the cultivation of plants that might not otherwise survive in a particular climate or season.
The controlled environment within a gróðurhús can be further regulated by adjusting ventilation, irrigation, and temperature.
