Domen - The Greenhouse

-- 💚🏡 --

     Når solen skinner, men det kun er 4 grader varmt og blæser koldt, så er det en god ting at have et drivhus at være inde i. Det trængte virkelig også til en kærlig hånd. Se bare her. Og så kan man ikke se alle rødderne.

When the sun shines, but it's only 4 degrees and an icy wind is blowing, it's nice to have a greenhouse to work in. And the greenhouse needed some work. Just look at this. Oh, you can't see all the roots.

Og den anden side af domen med vandanlæg og gamle lys og dynebetræk, der fungerede som frostsikring.

And the other half of the dome with the watering thingamajig. Candles and old duvet covers were against the frost.

Den sorte urtepotte, der ligger på det første billede er blevet fyldt en eller to gange om dagen i fire dage. Lige inden kaffen søndag så det sådan ud.

The black pot, as big as a bucket (10 litres) has been filled once or twice a day for four days.
Just before coffee Sunday it looked like this.


     Og mirakuløst nok skinnede solen stadig da vi var færdige med kaffen og jeg fik det sidste op. en halv spandfuld mere, hønsene er glade aftagere.

  And the Sun was still shining after coffee, first day this happened. Normally the afternoons have been cloudy and murky. I weeded the last spot, filling another half bucket. The hens did not complain over the extra work.

Det var oven i købet en smule mindre blæsende, så jeg ryddede en tiendedel af området udenfor også. Domen er en tikant i grundplan.

It was even a bit less windy and the dome was between me and the wind, so I cleared one tenth of the area outside. One tenth? Yes the dome is a decagon seen from above.


Nu skal domen vaskes og have nye vinduesoplukkere. Og vandanlægget skal spules, sættes op igen og sluttes til. Men jeg er allerede begyndt at forspire de første frø.

Now I just have to wash the dome, install window openers, and wash and put back up the watering thingy, But the first seeds are already sprouting in my window.

  2. Fresh worked earth is so nice, and the smell is even better ;) I am very fond of my dome. I build it 20 years ago, and I still am satisfied with my construction, I think not one single part except for the metal fasteners are the same as 20 years ago, but it feels the same.
