Can someone explain the greenhouse effect to me?

Do i have to build it a certain way and how much faster do the crops grow?

You need to have a ceiling with greenhouse effect above the crop for the greenhouse effect to trigger. There may not be another ceiling above it. The total strength depends on how many structures with greenhouse effect are in the vicinity. The Cap is 300%, and that's exactly how much faster your crops will grow (with normal server settings)

If I remember correctly, it's only really the ceilings that will effect it. You can build everything in w/e you want but cover all your plots in greenhouse ceilings and you will still gain the max benefits.
