Get clear plastic, 6 mil at a builder’s supply. It costs about $ 30. a hundred foot roll and will be enough to cover a small greenhouse with a double thickness that will last a couple of years. It is what I use on mine.

Can I hire students to design and build an (affordable) green house in CA?

Question by : Can I hire students to design and build an (affordable) green house in CA?
I wonder if it is possible to hire advance students to design and build a green (and affordable) home. I’m thinking about a shipping container house and find someone who can lay out wiring, plumbing, septic, isolation, etc. Do I need certified professionals in California to build one? Thanks so much for your answers.

California is a touchy state. First you need to talk to your local code enforcement agency about this.
I’d hate to get started on this project, and have it slammed “shut down” and out any money.
There are areas in California where these trailers have piled up, and they are being used as housing. Long Beach I believe.
If you do get the ok. Find a collage or tec school. Check it out, and run your idea through the teachers. If they like the idea, let them take it to the Dean with you attending. Also retain a lawyer and Insurance. Just in case someone gets hurt. Our state seems to be a big SUE state., either by somebody getting hurt,. Or that neighbor down the street.

have a water tank,500 gal.s in ground,pump goes where,what side.

Best answer:

Answer by TitoBob
From tank to pump, from pump to solar panels, from panels to radiators in greenhouse, from radiators back to the tank. If you can rig slow-speed fans to blow air past the radiators, it will increase their efficiency.

How to build Green house CHEAP!! (03,05,2010) #25

Somebody payed me to run an ad in the description of this video. After a few months they said that they didn’t want to continue because not many people clicked on their ad to buy a greenhouse. That makes my think that those people optioned to build their own. Also, the ad, more then payed for the supplies to build this greenhouse.
