35 underground greenhouse for year-round cultivation Bashny.Net

At different latitudes we have a different temperature of the surface air, but the temperature at a depth of 1.5-2.5 m remains unchanged — 10-15 degrees. The indicators inside your greenhouse will be the better, the deeper you plant it in the ground.

Underground greenhouse inside can be finished with stone, mud bricks (Adobe) or any dense natural material able to absorb large amount of heat. Plants resistant to cold weather conditions crops such as lettuce, cabbage and broccoli. The glazing creates a "greenhouse effect". You will hardly be able to build a greenhouse, if you have a high groundwater level. Such a greenhouse you can build at least 1.5 m above the groundwater level.





This is the principle of operation of underground greenhouses Mike Ohler. Mike digs a trench on the South side that allows cool air to descend and warm up in the warm soil. Install a pipe in the ground to transfer the heated air to the ground.

 





And this kind of underground greenhouses Alpine, which build the Indians in the mountains of South America (translated from the Indian, walipini means "place of warmth"). When digging the upper layer of soil laid on the bottom of the greenhouse, the rest is used as the new shaft on the North side. Window exposed with an angle of 90 degrees to the sun at the winter solstice, this will allow the greenhouse to keep the most warmth in those days, when the sun is shining less hours.





This scheme is an underground greenhouse made of bags filled with earth. Bags accumulate heat during the day to give during the night. Properly designed underground greenhouse is naturally heated from five sides, unlike the above-ground greenhouses, where it is heated only one side — the floor throughout the day. Along the walls of the greenhouse must to do a waterproof barrier.

• positioning towards the sun.
