Imagine that greenhouse but only the roof glazing is above ground. A pit greenhouse. I built one in Missouri. It was a tropical greenhouse for orchids and only cost $18/month to operate. The floor was always about 56 degrees F due to the earth and the glazing was sloped for the latitude to max out solar penetration in winter. Worth the excavation cost.
How do you determine the slope for glazing of the roof?
@@hamadilawson4396 degree of latitude plus a constant. I dont recall anymore. It may be 31.
What made up the $18 operating costs?

Your ventilation with the pulleys and string is genius! Love it!
Thanks! :)
Excellent. I really like what you guys have done. Look forward to seeing more👍🏻
Thanks!
Very clever and well thought out.
Oh that's very well thought out. Every aspect is superb.
Thanks a lot! :)
What a terrific design!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing, inspiring, and educating us!
(I will be incorporating the pond now into my design, thanks to you :)
Blessings to you and your garden!
awesome place, thanks for sharing
Wow, what a great set up.
Thanks a lot!
This looks like a space where I could spend most of my time during winter 😀
Great info, thanks for sharing.
Best wishes from Ireland.
Great design!
Quality content and delivery!
Thanks!
That is my dream greenhouse. I really like how you designed your greenhouse and property.
Thanks a lot! :)
This is brilliant! I'm looking to build a similar greenhouse attached to my house
Clever idea with the pond reflection.
Yes that is a cool thing to do!
Nice spot and build!
Thanks!
I've just come across your channel. Man, I must say. You've executed everything so elegantly and so thought out. I'm so inspired.
Thanks a lot :)
I have a question if you dont mind. What is the cover crop that you plant in your beds for fixing the soil? When do you sow these and when do you cut them down. I would love to do the same this year to improve my soil. Thank you for your time. Please keep making videos, id love to see how you sow / plan your seeds for successional harvests etc. Your videos are excellent! @@manuelangerer-permaculture
@@Joe-yo1tmHey there and thank you very much! I use alfalfa, lupine, buckweed, vetch, beans, grains and clover. I sow these whenever I have no use for some of the space in the vegetable beds, but most of the cover cropping I`m doing happens in Autumn. But I`ve also sown some in the beginning of February when I noticed that the soil on two of my beds needs some decompaction and fertility.
Super!
Fantastic
Thanks!
Very mulitfunctional indeed, but quite limited in productivity it seems. Thanks for sharing & the great tips!
Thanks! Yes you are right, this building is not built for high productivity in terms of food production. Due to the limited light inside a passive solar greenhouse (which results from the need of good insulation) I do not think that there is a passive solar greenhouse that can put out the production of a normal polytunnel. But it enables you to grow plants that would not grow in a specific season or climate otherwise!
Hello Neighbours :) Really love the multifunctional idea, especially with the lake outside, well thought out :)
Thanks a lot! :)
Ich bin begeistert von eurem Garten. Liebe Grüße aus der Steiermark
Vielen Dank! Liebe Grüße aus Oberösterreich!
These are the exercises I was told to do by my NHS, just explained better.
Danke :)
Your channel is awesome. Just found you and subscribed. Keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot!
Love this kind of stuff😊
Great!
Thanks a lot :)
ich bin begeistert, echt vorbildlich, so sollte es sein 👍 gruß aus d. land
Vielen lieben Dank :)
I love your videos! Definitely there's too little of them. Please make some more, huh?!
Hehe thanks a lot for your comment! More videos are coming, but first spring needs to arrive so that I can film the things I want :)
Smart!
Great design work. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks!
Beautiful video. New subscriber. Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪
Thanks a lot!
Lovely ,regards Zbigniew
Nice
Cooles Projekt
Danke!
Genial gracias👍🇦🇷💪🌍
Thanks :)
beautiful work! could you tell me what your hand pump for the water is called, please? I didn't even know that was a thing but I need one!
Thanks a lot! This hand pump is from the manufacturer "agt".
@@manuelangerer-permaculture thank you!
I have watched a few of these greenhouse videos, and once finished they always just seem to have a few potted plants sitting in them. I noticed there was no wide shot showing the plants in the greenhouse lol.
Yes, that is often the case. A passive solar greenhouse is not the place of highest productivity. It is a place of multifunctionality or it enables you to grow stuff that wouldn`t grow in your climate without it. If you want high productivity then build a polytunnel. In a passive solar greenhouse there is less light and you also can get problems with aphids and other insects fast. But it is warmer in winter and cooler in summer than a normal greenhouse and that`s where the advantages are. It`s a passivly heated, multifunctional room which is perfect for starting seedlings, tropical plants and much more. It needs to fit the context, otherwise it is not worth the effort building one.
@@manuelangerer-permaculture thanks for the repy
Super Interessant! was habt ihr den für Temperaturen im Winter draussen und drinnen?
Danke! Im Gewächshaus ist es im Winter im Schnitt etwa 5 - 10 Grad wärmer als draußen. Wenn starker Frost kommt, ist diese Spanne noch größer - Letzte Woche hatten wir in der Nacht -17 Grad, im Gewächshaus hatte es noch immer etwa ein Grad. Das gute ist ja immer, dass wenn es richtig kalt wird auch die Sonne scheint - weshalb das Gewächshaus auch gleich wieder gewärmt wird.
i would reduce the roof glazing by at least 1/2- since its the major source of overheating. and maybe all together depending on what your trying to grow- or as a heating source for an atatched house only i would eliminate it totally. also in the higher latitudes i would go down to vertical front glazing inorde to minimize summer over heating.
In our case, if I were to build the greenhouse again, I would even increase the glazing a bit to have a little more light for the plants. The building is far from overheating in summer. The huge amount of clay in the walls and the good orientation of the building keep it cool in the summer. The hottest temperature recorded inside in the summer was 34 degrees Celsius when it was 39 degrees outside.

غاية في الروعة والذكاء😅
und was macht ihr mit dem Licht? habt ihr extra Beleuchtung? wäre vielleicht noch was, so solarpanels auf der nordseite des Gwächshaus, nach süden ausgerichtet 🤔 hab grad Lust sowas nachzubauen😎
Wir haben keine extra Beleuchtung, für unsere Zwecke brauchen wir das nicht - Mit Solarpanel und Akku wäre das natürlich eine Option. Unser Strom kommt aber bereits von einer Photovoltaikanlage auf einem Gebäude nebenan, deshalb ist hier bei uns kein Bedarf am Gewächshausdach! Viel Erfolg beim Bau, melde dich gerne, falls Fragen auftauchen!
Ein wirklich cooles Gewächshaus. Vielfach sieht man bei diesen passive solar greenhouses, dass es einen saisonalen Wärmespeicher gibt (dass bspw. zur Kühlung im Sommer warme Luft in den Boden geblasen wird und diese Wärme im Winter mit der gleichen Lüftung wieder hochgeholt werden kann). Hast du das auch so gemacht und wenn nein, wieso nicht? Bleibt das Gewächshaus den ganzen Winter über frostfrei? Vielen Dank und liebe Grüsse aus der Schweiz :)
Danke für dein Kommentar! Ich habe das auch gemacht, habe die Rohre und den Ventilator mittlerweile abgebaut und zugeschüttet. Das System ist meiner Meinung nach enorm überbewertet und bedeutet einen großen baulichen Mehraufwand, der es nicht wert ist. Außerdem vergräbt man wieder eine Menge Kunststoff im Boden. Unser Gewächshaus ist das ganze Jahr über frostfrei und überhitzt im Sommer nicht, weil die Bauweise und Ausrichtung gut gewählt ist. Eine Erdbatterie braucht man nicht, wenn man gut baut! Liebe Grüße aus Oberösterreich!
@@manuelangerer-permaculture vielen lieben Dank für die aufschlussreiche Antwort :) so ein frostfreies Gewächshaus ist schon etwas mega tolles und eröffnet einem jede Menge Möglichkeiten und wenn das aif unserem Breitengrad sogar ohne den ganzen Plastik im Boden geht, ist es umso toller.
@@Dutlerveili Ja voll :)
🔝👏👏👏👏
Hi! Have you a place to share the plan of your greenhouse or a site where we can find it?
Hi there! I do not have a good plan to share. But you can write me an e-mail with your questions and I will answer them the best I can! You can find my e-mail adress on my website.
google university of missouri,
has plans online for a passive greenhouse@@manuelangerer-permaculture
How did you finish your floor in the greenhouse? Gravel, dirt, concrete?
Dirt and concrete tiles!
What fruits do you recommend growing in a snowy region
Inside a greenhouse or outside?
what temperature is the inside of the house during winter?
On average about 5-8 degrees Celsius if there is no sunshine for weeks. Lowest temperature inside was 0.5 degrees when it was -20 outside.
Need to prepare for ice hockey 🏒
low-consumption of exterior and energy i presume ! 2 places for summer and winter for sleeping would provide an extra comfort ! what temperature for the ground on winter ?
I have noticed spider-mites on your plants inside, is it a huge issue for you and how do you manage it?
Yes we have some spider-mites inside the greenhouse, especially in winter! In summer I often water the plants from above, so that the leaves get washed regularly and in this way the mites dissapear during summer. In winter I don`t want to do this because the leaves would dry very slowly so the mites can spread a bit. But no problems for the plants until now. You just have to clean the fruits a bit before you eat them ;-)
@@manuelangerer-permaculture if you can add 1-2 ventilators to blow over the top of leaves, they don't like that ;)
@@DeezChords Ah thanks for the tip, I´ll try that!
How do you deal with humidity? I have problem with high humidity.
The walls of the building are made from clay and wood, no vapor barrier is installed. So excess moisture gets transported out of the building through the walls. How is your greenhouse built? What materials have been used?
How warm in the winter? How cool in the summer?
It averages on about 5°C in winter and 25°C in summer.
My dream is making an off grid passive solar house for my bro and me. Do you know of any good books or references to learn how to build with passive solar?
I´m sorry to say that I do not know any good reference books for passive solar greenhouses.
@@manuelangerer-permaculture where did you learn?
university of misouri extension has plans for such a greenhouse@@Memorial_Memory
dayum i would like to live near you btw are u german mate?
also östereich wie ich , darf ich fragen von welchem bundesland?:)
Ah schön! In Kirchdorf an det Krems im südlichen Oberösterreich sind wir zu Hause :) Du?
Really awesome ideas, but surely you cant live off only 1000L!?
Сделайте пожалуйста субтитры на русском
Good idea. We wish you to awaken your kundalini and meditate sahaja yoga for free
