Some disadvantages of passive solar greenhouses include limited climate control due to reliance on external weather conditions, the risk of overheating without precise management of ventilation and shading, and the significant initial investment required for specialized materials and design features. These challenges necessitate a fine balance: a design that captures and retains sufficient solar heat while preventing excessive temperatures, and a willingness to invest more upfront for the long-term benefits of sustainability and reduced operational costs.
