RE: Permaculture, Homesteading, and Community Building // Business Planning and Starting a Farm
wrote a lil post on Greenhouses. I think it depends on what you want to grow and if you are in California, you can use a greenhouse to grow even warmer climate plants. The big one in Golden gate Park comes to mind... most of those plants wouldn't survive without a greenhouse. but I guess it depends on what you want to grow, your micro-climate and your needs... anyway, here is the article if anyone is interested: https://steemit.com/homesteading/@ecoknowme/dream-greenhouse-what-s-your-style-long-term-solutions-for-homesteaders-permaculturists-and-plant-lovers
I looked at your post and responded to it there. It's a good one!
Awesome conversation! Yes - it'll definitely get too hot in parts of California to use a greenhouse in the summer. I saw a friend use hers as an herb drying area - she emptied out the entire greenhouse, put wire racks on her shelves, and added some shade cloth.
What a great idea. Do you think that would also work to dry fruits?
I've never tried but I can imagine so, especially in warmer climates!
Good deal, thanks!
