Direct planting in soil:Free and natural-looking, but may not be as stable and may require additional reinforcement. Also more susceptible to pests and diseases.
Concrete pad:Durable, stable, and long-lasting, ideal for heavy greenhouses. However, it's expensive and time-consuming to install.
Paving stone, slabs or breeze blocks:Cost-effective and easy to install, but less durable than concrete. May not be as level or as resistant to moisture.
Wooden base:Affordable and customizable, but requires regular maintenance to prevent rot. Can be less stable than other options.
Steel base:Extremely durable and long-lasting, but also expensive and heavy. Installation can be challenging.
Plastic base:Lightweight and easy to transport, but not as durable as other options. May warp or crack over time.
