RE: 2019 pit greenhouse plans

in #diy6 years ago

I have always admired these, but our water table sits at 4' on a dry year. (This year it's probably 2'...) So what I would have is a small pool.... I also have wind, but not as bad as yours! It will require planning, and a rocket stove for heating, in my area.

Sort:  

Ooo thatd not be fun, or it coukd be a nice indoor pool 😆 mine should be fine i think worst case ill pump it via solar into the water storage win win. I was toying around the idea of adding a stove but id forget to keep it stocked, thanks for commenting

Yeah, that's my situation also. My greenhouse floods every year in the spring already, so I can imagine if I dug it in. I might look at the possibility of berming up around it, that would work to some extent.

Hmmm im starting to worry more about the potential for water issues as times go on i may have to dig a test hole in the greenhouse to see what happens before i commit to any plans

Yeah, that's a good idea, just to know if it will be a problem. You don't have to dig the hole in the greenhouse, you could dig it outside the greenhouse, you'll get the same result, one way or the other.

Haha thanks dont know why i didnt think of doing it outside of the greenhouse as you said the results will be the same, thanks
