π± Don't leave the top of your greenhouse unused
Do you have height under the gutters? Use it!
The MyFarm Greenhouse Kit is designed to be scalable. If your greenhouse has an eave height (roof edge) greater than 175 cm, you can add extra levels to your grow towers.
This is the most economical solution to increase your yield: 1 added module = 1 extra growing spot.
π Which Extension to Choose for My Greenhouse?
Extensions work by "pack" to equip all your towers simultaneously.
Warning: Please check the available eave height in your greenhouse before ordering (measured under the lowest crossbar).

π‘ The "Vertical Zoning" Strategy
Don't just see these extensions as extra spots, but as a tool to create micro-climates. With a taller tower, you create a natural gradient:
- βοΈ The Attic (Very Top): "Full Sun"
The warmest and brightest zone. Reserve extensions for energy-hungry plants (sugar production): Strawberries, Cherry Tomatoes, Chilies, and Basil. They will develop explosive flavor. - β
The Center: The "Temperate Zone"
Ideal for your Salads, Cabbage (Kale, Bok Choi), and Parsley. They will get light without burning. - βοΈ The Bottom: The "Cool Zone"
Thanks to the shade from the extensions, the bottom stays cooler. The dream spot for plants that bolt quickly in summer: Coriander, Spinach, Lamb's Lettuce, and Mint.
Make every ray of sun entering your greenhouse profitable!
