Greenhouse benches, aisles and potting space

Title formatBody

Follow a plant from potting to the growing bench and then to dispatch. Put those work areas and the cart routes on one drawing before filling the rest of the greenhouse with benches.

## Draw a batch from arrival to departure

Show where supplies arrive, where potting happens and where plants spend each stage. Include carts, hoses and materials waiting to be used. Benches drawn edge to edge can overstate usable capacity if there is no practical route for workers and plant movement.

Describe the crops, container sizes and seasonal changes to your greenhouse supplier and growing advisers. Their review should inform the working arrangement rather than selecting a structure solely by its outer dimensions.

## Separate production and support space

Decide which tasks belong under the growing cover and which need a separate work or storage area. A dedicated potting zone may simplify movement, but it should not silently consume the growing area used in your capacity assumptions.

Mark doors in relation to the equipment that passes through them. Ask for the clear opening and working aisle dimensions on the concept. Consider how you reach plants and maintain the enclosure without dismantling the whole setup.

## Test the peak season

Draw the fullest ordinary production period and trace a watering, inspection and dispatch round. Note the pinch points and compare alternative bench arrangements.
