Designing Simple and Effective Passive Solar Greenhouses with Rob Avis

from Farm Small Farm Smart

Today's episode is a BEST OF episode, which is a replay of a previously aired episode.  Enjoy! Engineer and permie Rob Avis from Verge Permaculture talks about building and designing passive solar greenhouses. Key Takeaways:   It is very important to have thermal mass in the greenhouse. Thermal mass absorbs the surplus heat during the date and radiates it back out at night. Know what your goals are for the greenhouse. Why are you building it? You can't over-vent a greenhouse. Thermal curtains can cut heat loss drastically through the glazing.   Listen to past episodes at https://www.paperpot.co/podcast Increase farm efficiency with the Paperpot Transplanter and Other Small Farm Equipment at https://www.paperpot.co/ Follow PaperpotCo on Instagram https://instagram.com/paperpot Follow Diego on Instagram https://instagram.com/diegofooter
