Cultivating fruit on top of greenhouse (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

raising

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cultivating' is the definition.
(raising is a kind of cultivating)

'fruit on top of greenhouse' is the wordplay.
'fruit' becomes 'raisin' (raisin is a kind of fruit).
'on top of greenhouse' becomes 'g' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'raisin'+'g'='RAISING'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for raising that I've seen before include "Growing" , "Promoting (in rank)" , "Lifting" , "Bringing up" , "Elevating" .)
