Citrus General Discussion / Re: Greenhouse for citrus trench type. Zaporizhia, Ukraine
« on: June 11, 2019, 02:49:46 PM »Nice. So you don’t need supplemental heat? Consider planting any directly in ground?No, additional heating is not necessary. The temperature in the winter below 3 * C does not fall. Enough internal heat of the earth.
In the greenhouse, in the soil of specially prepared pits immediately after the completion of construction, I planted a rootstock (yuzu), on which I planted various varieties of citrus. Now there are 19 such trees in the greenhouse and I also plan to plant 9. 3-5 varieties are grafted on each. A little later I photograph how it looks.

I do not know how to show the video of the greenhouse, so I will post links to youtube. I shot it in spring and autumn. So the plants look 4 years after construction. The comment is of course in Russian, but the video is quite indicative.

Based on the free area in a convenient location, it was decided to build a 5 by 10 meter greenhouse with an east-west orientation.
The walls were built from a material with high thermal conductivity on cement-sand mortar.
After the formation of the walls, the installation of the roof began. It is based on the central timber, which rests in the center of the greenhouse on the installed square tube and the strapping timber, which was fixed to the wall with threaded rods and nuts. Then rafters were attached to these bars.
On the rafters installed transverse slats. Thus was created a frame for polycarbonate.
All wooden surfaces were carefully treated with antiseptic.
The greenhouse is covered with a double layer of polycarbonate
So made the entrance to the greenhouse.

A bit of history, and then in essence)))
I live in the south of Ukraine. USDA zone - 6a. Of course, citrus fruits in such conditions can be grown only indoors, protecting them from the winter cold. For the first time I saw that it was possible in the distant youth, as a student of the biological faculty of the university. And it was just a huge greenhouse, dug into the ground by almost two meters. Many years have passed since then, but the idea of building a warm home for citrus trees has permanently settled in my head. In 2014, a greenhouse with an area of 50 square meters, dug into the ground by one meter and filled with soil around the perimeter by another meter, was built.

Hey. If you want, I can tell you about the history of the construction of my greenhouse just as I did on the Ukrainian forum. Just tell what topic to put this story.
