New greenhouse technology
I found this video very interesting. This gentleman is growing citrus in Nebraska:

That's neat, and especially since he heats in winter and cools in summer. I didn't hear how deep his piping is?
When I was young, I used to think about doing stuff like that. Now I'm happy to write a check to the propane co.! GG |
Well, he's 85 so.... at the end of the video he makes a comment about how things are just getting interesting. I hope I'm like that at 85.
I think I heard the piping is 8ft deep but varies in different situations. |

If it matters any, his soil is very sandy. Nebraska has a "dry line" dividing the state in half east to west. Ted Turner owns cropland in the sandhills portion, and I read he is buying more on the east side of the state near my area too.
