*goes out to garden and surveys her pitiful collection of 2" tall plants and wonders if she should sell her body to buy a greenhouse*

Not wanting to be cheap, but a good one, around £800.

"how much is a greenhouse?"

I bought my "cropping house" second hand on eBay. It's aluminium, was less than 5 years old, 30' x 10' and cost me 400 quid.
