It's a greenhouse that makes your plants grow better. I think they mean that the cell walls of the plants don't suffer attrition (=rubbing) due to motion, but why would the plants move in a greenhouse anyway?
Googling and guessing doesn't work, so please, no timewasters... massima serietà! :-) |

The unique positioning of the gasket and felt tracks allows the sliding glass doors to seal tightly when closed and minimizes friction during operation

Yup, I'm pretty sure it's the greenhouse sliding walls (or doors) ...unless the plants in there grow so quickly they move all over the place ;-) |
