Built a lean too greenhouse, installed a GAHT system and using water barrels. I was able to construct this greenhouse for apx. $11,000. The GAHT system is 9 four inch dia. perforated pipe with eight dia. manifold. Solar powered fan and vents to ventilate. My greenhouse is 10x40 and 12 feet at top. I'm Norwegian and very frugal can't see how you could do it for $4,500. Glazing alone with sundry tape, screw etc was $4,700. Will soon see if we did it right.

I bought property next door. It was owned by an engineer who wrote building code all over North America. He built one of these in the late 70's. He also installed a compostable toilet, and the green house was south facing and brought heat back into the home in winter. Very cool and way ahead of its time!

Wow thanks for all the positive feedback on my project! I’ll try and answer some questions. What wasn’t shown was the excavation with a perimeter drain of gravel and drainage pipe. Buried air exchange pipes would have been impractical due to drainage, but I like the idea. This could have been built of dry laid stone and it would be beautiful but what I have is small irregular rocks. The building it is attached to is a repair shop not a house, and the siding has an air gap behind it, but please take care with moisture attaching to your house! The rafters are full 2x4 hemlock, selected to be close to perfect from my local mill. At least equal to “2x6”s from the orange or blue box. I’ll let you know if they weren’t enough! Cost breakdown: Store lumber 1100, lumber from sawmill 500, wire panels 400, polycarbonate 1900 delivered, extrusions 400, screws etc 200. I have a 40 year old 23 hp loader tractor and a 1969 jd 450 dozer, so I am just counting materials. I had the fan and vents. The thing I like about the electric vents is I can set the temp within a few degrees, but the solar ones work too. I recommend your local Mennonite farm supply for polycarbonate and vents, in ny and pa there are several that buy in bulk to get a very good deal.. I now have the stonework and grading done outside and gravel and stone paths inside, the power is done and ventilation working. Just frosting outside at night but about 60 in there in the mornings, and lots of gaps to seal still. I will post an update on our channel when I get more done! Scott Btw I have no credentials whatsoever, just farm know-how, which is 90% careful observation and 10% s blind confidence. Build at your own risk!

Thanks for the update, Scott. Nothing wrong with not having "credentials". What I am finding in my research and learning of different land management and growing/gardening styles of thought is that the pioneers all started with OBSERVATION. And it seems that their advice always falls back to observation of your specific environment and observation of the effects of the changes you made. There is never just one right way of doing things. My husband and I have 80 acres of raw land which we have begin improving. Along with building a house and homestead, an underground greenhouse is also in the plans in the coming years. So, it is very fascinating to see the thought process and design considerations of others. Thank you again for sharing yours!

I would absolutely be interested in a way to make attaching a greenhouse to your house work with the humidity issue you mentioned. Help warm a small house in the winter, grow crops year round, and have more of an open-ish concept with having double doors/patio doors open year round from the house to the greenhouse. Looking for info to make it work with the lowest cost possible. Don't want to have to run an air conditioner or central air to keep the greenhouse at a good growing temp. Doing research but not finding much info. I'm in Missouri.

11:11 if you can utilize a black paint or make a charcoal paste to coat the rocks you'll get another 5 degrees of warmth over night from a couple hours of direct light. A small high intensity discharge lamp such as a 315w CMH would go a long way over night in a space like this as well. Great work.

My father had 6 green houses, and in the spring when it warming up. He make paint, and water in a hand pump bottle. Spray the white wash on top of the glass plains , to block the sunlight in the summer. The rain will wash by fall. The natural gas bill was high in winter, but he placed alot in one or two houses, and closed of the the one's that was used until spring planting. For venting, bring air though 12 inch tube under ground a 100 or 200 feet . That will cool it off in the summer.

So interesting to see the sunken greenhouse done with stone walls rather than concrete…. Given me a real pause for thought as my trade is dry stone wall building, I would say that this would absolutely be possible without the gabion baskets. Maybe the stone walls are good for humidity too? Low tech and lots of natural materials so it’s not hanging round for more years than necessary, what a fantastic project! Great video guys👌

Nice work, I just started digging this year for a greenhouse tucked into a south facing hill overlooking my garden and that 2 tier step down system with an stone internal shoring wall is a good idea. Was just going to make it 12 ft wide with one level, but do have room to go another 6 or 8 ft and split the difference into 2 levels........hmmmmm? Tough call, I would have to get rid of my external cold frames in the plan and have much more inside. So many ideas when looking at what people build and for me it has to be a passive heat sync greenhouse, no utilities running out to it except for maybe a couple solar panels and a battery or two for lights. Got time here anyways to figure it out, looks like a 3 year project for me. Hope everyone had a good growing season, it was good here in a zone 4b Ontario, Canada....the pantry, freezer and root cellar are all full, the garden is put to sleep already and there's 2 full bays of compost ready for startup in the spring. Got the snow blower all tuned up and settling in for a long winters nap.....happy gardening 2023 everyone.

Brilliant idea for a greenhouse underground. We recently created an underground greenhouse as a proof of concept in the Ozarks, to extend the growing season with more temperature control than a cold box, AND to reduce heat stress during the summer. Basically trying to effectively utilize the constant ground temperature of about 56 degrees. Not sure how fiddly it will be through the winter but with the crazy climate changes we had to do something to keep producing food consistently. Ours is much smaller, surrounded with concrete blocks, and covered with old windows that are easily removed as needed. And then there is the indoor vegetable growing room. Our goal is to avoid grocery stores and so far that's working.

Awesome design. Good luck going forward. Here's some low tech. To inexpensively prevent freezing use strings of christmas lights (large bulb type). Enough for behind glazing, and will work overnight with patio planters (citrus) moved against the house, hung with the lights, and covered with plastic. A trouble-light has a hook for hanging and a protective enclosure that keeps the bulb from touching anything. Emergency greenhouse within a greenhouse for that super January snap. Light bulbs are great for winter heating inside paint cabinets, crawl-space water supplies with a metal water shutoff (inside insulated box) and preventing freeze-up in sink, tub and toilet traps.

A plant/moss wall in the area where moisture is a concern is an excellent dehumidifier, air purifier, and heat regulator

I must say that I really enjoyed watching your video today. So inspiring and encouraging to see the greenhouse from almost start to finish and the ridiculous price of it all. I was surprised and also very happy to see that the automatic computer that waters the plants in the greenhouse is from the 'Galcon' company and is manufactured in Israel. 🥰. I don't know about the other pipes, the drippers and the polycarbonate roof, but maybe they are also made in Israel.

The orientation of the greenhouse should be from east to west and rafters should also be in the same direction. Done that with my trellis system in an open garden and it works excellent. My cell phone was used as a compass to get more precise with the trellis orientation.

You don't have to reinvent the wheel on this. There is enough material online about passive solar greenhouses, a Chinese approach to greenhouses in the winter. That you can adapt it quite well to your own. Basically two greenhouses in one, with an airgap between the two, but where the inside greenhouse also gets an insulation that you can roll up and down. I am building one next year, I hope!

Wow for the love of FIGS! lol I am N of ATl and just whacking off over grown native bushes after really strange year, a droughty end, so I am sort of starting fresh with way smaller next year. Gathering fig leaves that are crinckly dry as herb tea base and using the green figs in a ferment. Been a fun fig year experimented with leaf shreds in kraut for amazing flavor, small amounts as it is a spice in this context. Love the greenhouse! if I could do this I would grow a papaya, a banana and maybe a lemon or avocado!

Scott is absolutely right about the medditarenean courtyard effect. Please do a progress video later on ! He is very knowledgeable on seaeon extension and passive systems. Drystone walls is absolutely an art/trade that we are working on reviving in Europe. Gabion is a good, faster compromize.

There is a postal worker in North Dakota that did this, with air circulation/passive thermal from buried air tubes that maintains his greenhouse at 50degrees F even in North Dakota winters...he is able to sell oranges commercially in town for a wonderful profit..plans available for 20$ - back wall is thermal mass via water storage...

Look into Rocket Mass Heater for indoor use. Compost generates a lot of heat . I've seen large hoop houses with large contained piles of compost. I think you can incorporate the Rocket Mass Heater in this green house running it along your back wall. They are wicked efficient and endless configurations once you get the concept of air flow. I do like what you're doing with below ground.

thank you. I learned so much. I have been battling with geodesic dome with polystyrene cover. Never could understand why I couldn't keep the heat in, no matter how much mass I added.
