After having a greenhouse for the past 3 years, my advice is--have a successful garden outside first, try gardening in a cold frame 2nd, then move onto a greenhouse. The skills you learned for each one will serve you in the greenhouse.

I recommend going to your local public library and checking out greenhouse books for free.

I would start with greenhouse types, structures and basics. It's crucial to understand how a greenhouse functions before trying to grow plants in one.
