Ok, ive got a idea to throw out. Since the main benefit of a greenhouse prop system is natural sunlight, but it is also very hard to control the temperatures also. Why not build a greenhoue into the ground, so that you use the geothermal properties to help cool the prop system during the summer and warm during the winter.
Couldnt you just dig say a 10x20 footprint about ten feet into the ground, and place a dome of dual sheet plastic over for the roof? Wouldnt this make a much more stable system?
you would of course have to deal with rain, but installing retaining walls and drains would cure that right?
This could also help people in hurricane territory, since it can't easily be blown away?
just an idea, trying to see what i can stir up, please post your thoughts
