Not as good as an all clear structure obviously.
I think in general it's better to use solid materials if you have the option.
You could probably get away with windows if you only used shade tolerant plants. You'd want plants that only need 3 or 4 hours of sunlight.
If I made one here with windows in the sides and roof, it would get much more than 4 hours a day.
So, a clear roof with windows every few feet?
Maybe, I'm not sure. That sounds about right.
MAybe every foot.
The sides would still have to be mostly plastic.
Yeah, probably not a great idea. Too much work. Just build it with solid shit..kek
Oh shit, What if we used chicken wire attached the frame with plastic over that?
That would definitely give it some strength. You could even make a few vent slits for wind resitance that way.
Yeah, I can't believe that I didn't think of it sooner.
How big are you trying to go here?
Actually now that you mention it, I know someone who has one with chain link inner walls.
He didn't use plastic on the outside though. I think it was a conversion from an old chicken coup.
Well at least 6 feet tall at the apex. I have no Idea how wide to make it.
How much room do you have?
1 acre
kek
Dude, just build something permanent.
Oh.
Renting fucking sucks.
Yeah.
It has it's place though.
Plus, I have a few large trees in the yard so making something that could move would be better.
I have to ask, are looking to do something like orchid's plan? Or, are you gonna come be Bear Grills with ramen and me?
I'm good either way tbh, whatever works out best. I think some civilization is probably good to have relatively near though.
We aren't moving to Alaska, so there will always be civilization near by.
I've been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to learn most of the basic skills needed to "homestead", but I don't mind city living either.
I'm not sure if this is the right thread, but something like this http://www.eugsters.com/ has the ability to make a ton of money if we're close enough to a large city.
It's 10 mins from where I live.
When you say "a ton" of money, how much are you thinking?
KEK "Come Visit the White Nationalist Petting Zoo! Fun For All Ages!"
I don't even care about the money, that would be fun and awesome.
enough to justify purchasing land to make something like this. Any left over produce can be eaten or fed to pigs. It also lets us establish a way to show that we aren't just a bunch of ted kacynski inspired skinheads.
It would be all wholesome white families. No boons screaming about not getting enough food pellets.
I think it would be worth doing just for the sake of outreach and fun.
You also have to rember that these are rustbelt prices, not west coast prices.
We could win the hearts and minds of our fellow white people while making some money to further our cause.
yeah thats a great idea
