GREENHOUSE that CAPTURES RAIN for PLANTS!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- When you live OFF GRID like we do WATER is super important. We have no well or CITY WATER and rely 100% on RAIN WATER CATCHMENT. So every building has to be SELF SUFFICIENT. This is the first step in securing WATER for the GREENHOUSE and RAISED BED area of our GARDEN. This stand will hold about 4500 pounds of water!

About OFF GRID with DOUG and STACY:
We moved to our 11 acres in 2011 from a large city in the Midwest with zero carpentry and farming skills. We live with no solar / wind power / public water or well. We share our adventure to a sustainable life, growing our own food from vegetables to meat. We post videos DAILY and they range from HOW TO to EVERYDAY LIFE and NUTRITION on the off grid homestead. We were city folks just like you probably and wanted to enjoy life and have more control over our food. We share food recipes as well as natural remedies.

Always peaceful watching a fella work.😂😄
I cant wait to see how this turns out! The greenhouse will flourish with its own water supply!
Nice. I did this three years ago with a wine barrel for my front flower beds. We put a plant in the opening on top with goldfish to keep it clean. Works great. You will just love the convenience of this.
Love the idea of having each building collect its own water. Thanks for sharing Doug!
Thanks, I really like learning stuff like this.
Can't wait to see the next video.
I have a small building that I want to catch the rain off of.
You guys are great.
Cathy
Doug..what awesome work..we will be watching final project...thanks to You&Stacy
If your ground has any moisture whatsoever, you don't need to add water to the concrete. It will pull whatever moisture it needs out of the earth. My father in-law taught me this many years ago. I thought he was full of it, but it works fine.
Boy I wish my men would put water collection on all our farm buildings too! You're such a great hubby!
Here in the desert, collecting what little rainwater there is is essential. I love this design!
It is nice to see how you homestead has grown. We are just starting but we are hoping it grows steadily as your has. Thanks for all you take time to show.
Watching you makes me wish I had some land. I am new to your channel and loving it.
Looking forward to the continued video. Good job doug
just got our property in texas county, MO. Your site provides great information for those new to the homesteading life. Appreciate your input and nuances as we begin our homestead adventure.
Congrats, maybe we will see you at Baker creek in Mansfield this Sunday and Monday? 👍
So Awesome, I am trying to do the same using the shed in my backyard, as my garden was NOT set up close to my house LOL. No worries though, this is how we learn!
Like the water resourcefulness. The tips are always welcome.
I got my email from bonfire that you reached your T-shirt minimum, I'm so excited I get a "make food your medicine" shirt. Not only am I a Doug and Stacy fan, but this is my mantra to friends and family on how to live health and happy. Thank you for the blessing of your fantastic channel.
See you Sunday!!!
You mentioned doing that on the hoop house. I plan on adding gutters to both sides and then having them fill up IBC containers which would be located on the inside of the hoop house. Approximately 3000 sq ft catches a lot of water!! My only issue is that there would be low water pressure so I’m going to have to use a pump. A friend recommended a solar powered pump. Thanks for sharing Doug!
Greg is do nice i remember him helping out some on the outdoor kitchen...👍🏽😘😘🌸🌷😁😁💐
love it
I like the idea of collecting the water off of your buildings. I really enjoy your channel.
Doug ,dug holes holes.and what big holes Doug, dug! That's quite a big work out you got done. Dang!!! We'll have to start calling you Super Doug...Great video, once again!!! Can't wait for part 2. Thanks for caring & sharing 😁🖤😀
Can't wait for part 2.💚 your blogs!
I'm glad Maggie approves, the greenhouse looks great
You are the hippest Amish person I know! I enjoy your recommendations concerning farming also . The old time way may be slow but it's steady! Thanks again!😊
I loved the tractor ride! We just traded our 62 Thunderbird for a tractor. We will see you Sunday at Baker Creek Seed Festival and hope we can tell you in person our gratitude we have for all you have taught us. Tonya and Allen from Elizabeth Arkansas
Wow! The garden looks great. Cant wait to see the finished deck. Love the green house water collection idea. Awesome as usual. 😀💗
I'm always looking at the different ways people collect water. Looking forward to part 2 of this one.
Great idea adding catchment on all buildings, Thank you for showing us how to put the end caps on the gutters. We are going to do the same to our cabin once built and any other building that we will make.
Just fantastic. So smart and I love the idea of being self sufficient
Be interested to see the final product ! Looks good so far !
Can't wait to see the self-sufficient greenhouse in action. Looks like the onions are doing very well already!
Now, thats a good friend. We were thinking of rain water catchment for our greenhouse out at the ranch, thanks for some ideas.
#coocoo squad#homesteeadhomiefromohio Would love to see final product. You guys are so inventive. Love the use of free rain water.
How awesome!! Love how you teach sustainability through homesteading. Teach me more!!
Watching to see the finished product.
Great video! We always love your homestead project videos. Thanks for bringing us along!
Just finished refurbishing a chicken coop, which a friend was happy to get rid of and another friend has a rain barrel she wants to get rid of, and am going to get a piece of gutter to do the same thing on a 10th of the scale of what you are doing but the rain barrel will be within 3 ft of the water dish, easier for me and less chemicals for my birds! You and Stacy are both very inspiring even for this city dweller!! Thank you.
Nice! I am working on plans to get something like this set up on my barn and my budding chicken coop. I have SO MANY projects, it's overwhelming.
Preach It! Lol
We capture our rain water as well from the pole barn into 2 tanks which are 250 gallons each. Our pole barn is 40 feet long, so the surface is rather large to capture this precious resource. This water is used for the garden primarily. It's amazing to see how fast a tank fills when it's a steady rain. We've seen one filled in about 15 minutes.
I love it i want to do my homestead just like you guys as soon as I get one that is lol Hey Stacy can you please do a day in the life from waking up to going to bed I would love to see what your hole day is like love you guys.
I’m so happy to see this!!! 💦☔️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I can’t wait for part two!!! 💙💙💙
Great work! Excited to see how things finish up.
Post Hole Diggin'! Such a fun job! Not that I would know, Patrick is the one that does all that around here, I just help him hold things straight - haha!
I sure appreciate these build tutorials. I had no idea how to install my own gutters. Thank you!
I've been wanting to set up something similar to collect rain for my garden. Interested to see how this finishes.
I feel you on the post holes. I tried using a gas powered auger and didn't get very far. I had to go back to the trusty manual one. I like the self sufficient green house. I agree, especially where we are in the desert water is precious. I eventually want every one of our structures to collect water. Keep up the great work.
Husband is brainstorming the gutter redo of our future home (fingers crossed) to water collect. Love getting ideas from you
Love your greenhouse, it's going to be an awesome set up once it's done.
This is a very good idea to collect water..to grow stuff!!!!...
I saw that Doug, lol
Augers are handy but not always effective. Looks good so far Mr. Doug. Can't wait to see the finished product. 😀
way to go! u guys are beautiful life force your positive energy is not gone unnoticed
Looks like a great start there Doug, looking forward to seeing more of your latest project!
I love seeing this project! Im waiting for the completion. I think I can do this, with a little stroll through this vid! Thanks, AGAIN! 🌱🐝🌱
You are a very handy man to have on a homestead!
1st. Hopefully you got it built to catch some of the rain we got this morning and the next day.
Thanks for sharing. Rainwater for our garden is on the project list. Hopefully very soon. Great job! God bless ya'll❤️
Nice gutter system. I need something like this for my cabin.
Also a good tip if your gutters have trees that can drop debris into them, put house screening over it to let only water get in the gutters and no leaves or pine needles.
Two Outstanding Prizes !!! Either one is a Treasure !!!
I thought that signed had a nice hum to it and it was fascinating watching the soil rise up.😁
I really like the rain catchment systems u do. I would like to do them here at my place. Looking forward to the finished product
These videos are so educational !!! Thank you Doug and Stacy !!! All your videos Rock !!
Hi Doug & Stacy! Love your videos--looks like you had a flat tire on your lawn mower in the barn...oh well, that's REAL LIFE..we can relate and identify..have an awesome day to you two!!! BTW--thank you for all you do for us out there---it's awesome that good food is a good portion of your ministry----same here...THANKS AGAIN...
It's good to see I'm not the only one who puts the silicone on the wrong side! 😁 Looking really forward to seeing the greenhouse finished.
Cindi C it wasn't on the wrong side lol that cap was for the other end 😉👍so you are still solo 😂
OFF GRID with DOUG & STACY lol Dang it!
Great illusion done with mirrors. ha.... Looking forward to part deux !!
Pray for a good rain
Thanks Doug. Love learning from you.
love the idea, will keep in mind when my green house goes in, Thank you
Can't wait to see the finished product! Love this idea!
Man, you're a hard worker, Doug!
Oh man, I have dug so many post holes in the last 4 years, I feel your pain. We rented an auger also but it petered out in our deeply rooted forest terrain. Sometimes good old elbow greese is the only way. Excellent job btw
I have a machine like that, it is the best. Makes digging holes so easy.
Love, Love your videos! My daughter and I are about to purchase some land and try too apply your a lot of your ideas, principles, and love☺. She's learning at 17
Doug is so smart now a PHDD
I can't wait to see how the catchment system works on your greenhouse. I am wanting to do the same thing.
God bless and we love yall
Eagerly watching for part 2.
Hey Doug, liked the ride on the tractor touring your homestead!
Just ordered my “Let Food Be Your Medicine” t-shirt!! Gotta wait till all the way at the end of May to get it though!! GEESH! Three whole weeks! I CANT TAKE IT!!! LOL 😆 I’m teasing of course. Suuuuper excited to get it though. Such a cute design. Love it!!! Thanks so much guys. You’re awesome sauce! 😉 Love, hugs and blessings~ Lisa
sealed wrong one at 8:10 thanks for the helpful info. Have a great week.
Love the greenhouse!
Thanks for the tractor ride! that was cool! I love watching your vids!
We need to do this for our little farm.
That greenhouse design is amazing Doug and Stacey 😊#homesteadhomi
Hi....... 🏡🎥👍👍👍
That's a great idea and your dog is so cute.
Looking good... That's going to be handy for the garden too.
We have a garden shed we need to catch the rain from. Not room for a real gutter so need to improvise. Good tips here. Is your soil too much clay and that is why the auger didn't work? Noticed the red water pump must have been made in Iowa. 👍👍 Maggie is quite the helper and Greg is a true friend.
Good job Doug !
For future reference, there is an aluminum based caulk which lasts much longer and seals gutters better for longer. Plain silicone and sun don't get along to well.
Good job, Doug :-D
Anxiously awaiting the finished product!
that was awesome. I am going to try to do that to feed water down for my stuff too. I may go with smaller containers since there is only one of me and I do have a well already for the house. But the more self reliant a person can be the better. But without a man to do my work my projects have to be smaller. You are both so lucky to have found each other with the same dreams and intelligence.
I cant wait to see the rest! I have a small shed and 55 gallon barrels to try and catch water for my gardens. That's my next project after the coop expansion.
Thanks! Looking forward to part 2.
Hoping and praying Fundamental Home wins the camera!
Thank s for all the information you & Stacy Rock
I hadn't caught before that you only use rain water. I'm going to browse your other videos and look for some more of your rain catchment systems.

What a blessing that you are so handy! God is good!
Sly move on the end-caps! The first shall be last and the last shall be first! ;) Love your videos!
Had to stop back, I almost forgot to hit the thumbs up😎
