Pop up greenhouse and vegetables
Evening everyone,
I'm a beginner gardener and started last year growing some veg (tomatoes and french beans). This year I am experimenting with a few different seeds both flower and veg and due to lack of windowsill space I decided to buy one of those pop up greenhouses. I have a few things germinating on my windowsill and just wondered if I will be able to move my lettuce and spinach (recently germinated) into the greenhouse as they are more cold tolerable, or will they need to be hardened off first? Any advice or tips appreciated.

Yes, it is best to reduce the shock to small plants before you release them to the wilder world.
However, I would caution against placing them in direct sunlight in such a structure because it will get very warm in the strong sun we are likely to get this week.

I went with a modular setup from fullbloomlightdep.com, and it made scaling way smoother than I expected. The automated light dep and UL listed controls handled most of the daily work for me, and the US steel frame felt rock solid during bad weather. The virtual tour helped me pick the right series, and their support during installation took a lot of stress off my plate.
