To grow vegetables year-round in a greenhouse, follow a seasonal strategy: in spring, start tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers from seed on the warmest shelf and use succession planting for leafy greens; in summer, manage heat by opening vents, running oscillating fans, and applying shade cloth while watering early morning; in autumn, plant kale, spinach, winter lettuce, and Swiss chard 6-8 weeks before frost while summer crops are still producing; in winter, focus on cold-hardy crops like lettuce, spinach, kale, radishes, and green onions using thermal mass, insulation, and a small heater to keep temperatures just above freezing; and always think 3 months ahead by starting autumn planting while harvesting summer crops and preparing for winter while harvesting autumn crops.

How to Grow Vegetables in a Greenhouse Year Round (Complete Beginner's Guide)Added:
Most people think growing vegetables is only possible in spring and summer.
They are completely wrong.
Here is how to grow fresh food in your greenhouse every single month of the year.
Spring, [music] start your tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers from seed early.
Place them on [music] the highest warmest shelf.
Use succession planting for leafy greens. Sow small [music] amounts every 2 to 3 weeks for continuous harvests all season long.
Summer, >> [music] >> your greenhouse produces is at its absolute peak.
Manage the heat by opening all vents every morning, running your oscillating [music] fan continuously, and applying shade cloth to your panels.
Always water early in the morning, [music] never in the middle of a hot day.
Autumn, this is where most greenhouse growers fail.
Never wait for [music] summer crops to die before planting autumn crops.
Start kale, spinach, >> [music] >> winter lettuce, and Swiss chard 6 to 8 weeks before your first frost while summer crops are still producing.
This overlap [music] is the secret to uninterrupted harvests.
Winter, focus on cold hardy crops that love cool temperatures.
Lettuce, spinach, kale, radishes, and green onions all thrive in an unheated greenhouse [music] through winter.
Use thermal mass, bubble wrap insulation, and a small thermostat heater to keep temperatures just above freezing affordably.
The final [music] secret, always think 3 months ahead.
While harvesting summer crops, start autumn [music] planting.
While harvesting autumn crops, prepare for winter.
This forward thinking keeps your greenhouse full and productive every [music] single week of the year.
