Riassunto

A VERY COMPLEX ECOSYSTEM HOUSED IN A VERY SIMPLE DESIGNFOR PHOTOS AND INFORMATION ABOUT THE BIODOME GARDEN GO TO: www.biodomegreenhouse.com The modern day homesteaders guide to building a low energy, earth friendly, self contained, passive solar BIODOME GARDEN and aquaculture unit that extends the vegetable growing season by several months to year-around, depending on the area of the country. With over a hundred photographs as well as several diagrams, THE BIODOME GARDEN BOOK describes how to construct and maintain a unique passive solar greenhouse and aquaculture unit with a naturally humidified, wind-powered ventilation system that requires no electricity, though one electrical outlet is needed for the pump in fish tank. Unlike the usual flimsy greenhouse structure, the BIODOME GARDEN is a design of superior strength, engineered with a high degree of structural integrity--an organic system capable of supplying animal and vegetable protein and nutrients, while also absorbing, storing, and radiating heat for a moisture-retaining, weed-free, "potting soil" garden. For more information on the book, including numerous photographs, please visit the BIODOME GARDEN website above. SPECIAL NOTE: A 900 gallon fiberglass fish tank with 1/2" thick walls and a center floor drain, and 16' diameter fiberglass dome designed specifically for the BIODOME GARDEN, which will include a walk-through door and two large side vents, will both be available for purchase in the near future. If interested, please go to www.biodomegreenhouse.com to add your name to a waiting list for notification when the dome and fish tank are available.

L'autore:

Patricia Watters is committed to energy conservation and wholesome lifestyles. Log homes and solar greenhouses are complimentary to her philosophy of life. Her objective in creating THE BIODOME GARDEN BOOK and WAIST-LEVEL GARDENING (also on Amazon), and passing on the information so that others can benefit from her research, is an effort to help others enjoy a healthful, environmentally-friendly way of life. Ms. Watters became involved in creating an effective passive solar greenhouse system in 1982 while pursuing an interest in growing vegetables year-around that would use a minimum of water. Subsequently, she developed her Biodome Garden, which includes a 900-gallon aquaculture system for heat absorption, radiation, and humidification. Ms. Watters lives with her husband in a hand-built log house in the woods of Oregon. Their only source of water is rain water, which is collected off the roof and flows into an 8000-gallon under-ground cistern. She invites you to visit her website at www.biodomegarden.com to learn more about the book, and to view full-color photographs of her Biodome garden.
