A tin sheet is cheap. You dig a hole, however long, wide, and deep. Then, you can get in the hole and plant whatever in there. Once done, you can cover it up with the sheet (or wood or whatever) and put the bottle-lights inside.
That way, you keep the pests out of your new garden.
- mattgrice 13y agoIt does not seem like that would be very practical. Very few economically important plants will thrive in anything less than full sunlight. This makes sense because most plants become economically important because they are productive (good at turning sunlight into something we want like calories or wood). The exceptions are plants that are grown for some valuable quality which is only needed in scarce quantities, like some spices or flowers.
- PebblesRox 13y agoYeah, I didn't understand the hydroponics comment at the end. How does it work better to grow plants indoors than outside if you're using a limited amount of sunlight indoors? Are there other factors that make it worth it?
- leke 13y agoI was thinking the same thing. Dig a deep hole, or make a mound, then you can grow your weed with good privacy.
- kefka 13y agoI wasn't thinking weed offhand. I live in an area with extensive 4 legged rodents called deer. They will come up to your front porch and eat everything they can bite. Having a vegetable garden like this would keep pests like that away. Well,that and growing weed.
