\"Inside<\/a>

Inside the Greenhouse, facing South West. <\/p><\/div>\n

I’ve had some questions about the inside area of the Greenhouse, so I thought I would post some pictures. The photo above was taken at night, in February, just after a mild snowstorm. The roof looks really neat after it snows, but as soon as the sun rises in the morning, it all melts off.<\/p>\n

The yellow shelves are about by 4 ft by 7 ft each, large enough for me to\u00a0lay down\u00a0flat. They are meant to hold an inch of water, and\u00a0I figure I can place over 1,000\u00a0 plants on them alone. Three of them are visable in the picture above.<\/p>\n

\"Testing<\/a>

Testing the Design, during Construction<\/p><\/div>\n

I was pretty sure this concept would work, so I didn’t make a prototype, I just built the tables, and tested the design when I was done. If I could change one thing, I would add a way to adjust the height of the tables. The tables should not be level, as I would like the water to drain out when needed. After I tested the concept, and the water did not leak out, I added a drain, and some plumbing.<\/p>\n

\"Facing<\/a>

Facing North-East<\/p><\/div>\n

On the North East side, I cut the shelf off half way across the width of the greenhouse to make a space to store my garden tools.<\/p>\n

Around November, I hung up some Christmas lights, and soon found out they make the perfect night light. I keep them on all day and night, as they don’t use much power. I\u00a0belive they give off just enought light to be seen by my Amish neighbors. The lights look really neat outside at night, when the colors shine through the snow.<\/p>\n

I can’t wait to post a picture of the shelves covered in little plants….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
