The idea dea of growing plants in environmentally controlled areas has existed since Roman times. The Roman emperor Tiberius ate a cucumber-like[6] vegetable daily. The Roman gardeners used artificial methods (similar to the greenhouse system) of growing to have it available for his table every day of the year. Cucumbers were planted in wheeled carts which were put in the sun daily, then taken inside to keep them warm at night. The cucumbers were stored under frames or in cucumber houses glazed with either oiled cloth known as specularia or with sheets of selenite (a.k.a. lapis specularis), according to the description by Pliny the Elder.[7] Great video guys!
It is really an honor to learn some vital information regarding on this very beneficial and feasible outdoor activity. This advantageous greenhouse farming really inspired me a lot. Nice to hear effective tips coming from your way. Thank you!
So nice to know that Syngenta is thinking about construction methods that will allow farmers to use less chemicals. Who says they don't care about the common man. I'm sure they will be happy to provide GMO seed at inflated cost as well.
This is very interesting, pls tell us how do you control or regulate the temperature, humidity sunlight and other weather parameters. It's not only about the structure, pls upload the basic activities in this type of green house
Good Day Sir I loved the Video.I am not a farmer .But hope to be one day .Just doing research ,on how to make a substanable life .Your green house is what I need. Thank you
Thanks for this awareness video running in RUclips since some time. This is really important to disseminate the unique idea of nature friendly, energy efficient, and comparable 'low-cost greenhouse technology'. It is naturally ventilated greenhouse with all shorts of modern farming facility, thus comparable almost in every respect. However please note the two following points very carefully. (1) It is not easy to built a scientific low-cost greenhouse which is comparable to common iron-frame greenhouse. The technology is prone to dilution due to its non-standard construction material. So please know & follow the proper technology and methodology of construction. OTHERWISE IT WILL BE A FAILED EFFORT. (2) It can't be possible to erect a scientific low-cost greenhouse with almost no-cost. The cost of covering materials will cost similar to that of common pipe-frame greenhouse. It will cost 1/3rd to 1/2 of the common pipe frame greenhouse. -- Low-cost scientific technology is always a difficult proposition.
Well, I know that cucumbers, squash, watermelon, etc. require insect pollination. You can also pollinate them by hand if you pick the male flower, pull the petals off to expose the stamen that produces the pollen, than brush that into the female flower. There may be others also, but those are the ones that I know.
Great job. I love how we can build greenhouses without buying these foo foo expensive fancy ones. Have you looked into adding rock dust to your soil to add minerals. Good idea
if you could give description in text regarding dimension and type of poly material used it would be much more useful. we are interested in trying out.
Well done and very informative video. I just recently posted a video on my Greenhouse that I built at my home and was able to obtain some new ideas that I will use in the future. Thanks!
4000 sq m (approx. 1 acre green house for vegetables in India costs Rs. 35 lakhs (galvanized steel structure) and Rs. 20 to 25 lakhs ( treated bamboo structure) till plantation. Govt. of India's Ministry of Agriculture gives subsidy of 50 % for the same under the NHB/ NHM programme. Only structure costs Rs. 620 per sq.m.(galvanized steel structure) and Rs. 350 per sqm. ( treated bamboo structure).
I think they use it to maintain high humidity for the plants and to keep insects away. Also some crops cannot handle the harsh direct sunlight that exists in the tropics.
Tomatoes basically are self pollinating and do not need insect pollination. Gentle shaking of the branches is really all they need to transfer pollen from one flower to the other.
Unlike in Ireland, Its too hot in Kenya to grow bountiful tomatoes outdoors. They don't use aquaponics because it isn't low key enough for Kenya. Aquaponics require constant electric supply which is a hindrance.
Nice video. I see you have a large metal water tower/tank, this is also a good idea for small gardens and sharing between close gardens with others, such as a community garden. Perhaps a 5 gallon bucket with a lid and valve for a flexible hose would be good for small gardens, rather than trying to lift a heavy watering can/sprinkler all the time.
Using a pickaxe to make the bed is easier and faster than the shovel. This is how we do it in Vietnam. The netting on the greenhouse is a different style than in the USA. It's hot in Africa and Vietnam. The net greenhouse served more as bugs protection for less used of chemical.

The universities all over the world should teach the principles and the research institutes of this world should investigate the underlying mechanisms of Sepp Holzer permaculture/agro-ecology. Sepp Holzer's agricultural system beats conventional/GMO farming in every regard: no factory farming, no chemical or genetic pollution, more production per surface unit, huge bio-diversity, extreme landscape beauty, intact and clean water household, no deforestation, no hunger, no epidemy of diseases, each place would have its unique plant varieties, and most important, food would become medicine, as food grown in permaculture is packed with nutrients and antioxydants. If the world adopts Sepp Holzer's farming system, we would live in a world of abundance and beauty. We could feed 3 times more people than currently live on earth. If agro-ecology prevails, the earth's biosphere will soon be regenerated. Vive Sepp Holzer! Hoch lebe Sepp Holzer! 赛普·霍尔泽，加油!
I do know what I'm talking about and 100% control of squirrels is just not true, netting may reduce insects getting in, but they always get in and reproduce at a faster rate because they are cold blooded. The warmer it is the faster the life cycle, which means they become adults faster and lays eggs faster etc.
Thank you for the very informative tips on greenhouse construction. Watching from Tanzania
Great work I learnt a lot and has helped to construct my green house at a relatively lowcost.Thanks
How much did you use to construct yours?

Arupratan Ghosh Yes, even here he mentions $ comparisons of 1/2 cost. Definitely costly here. Paradoxically?
Very Informative stay blessed we need more of these videos

Great ideas,great profits - low cost greenhoues
Sir i love your idea. May you achieve your goals. And may African youth learn from you.
So useful to people like us with minimal knowledge on farming....
look at aquaponics vidoes for the future,.
very good green house I like it I can make greenhouse in a plot and house????
I work in pest control in farming, I have seen first hand that it is much harder to control pest in a green house. Spider mites are the worst.
Great job. I love how we can build greenhouses without buying these foo foo expensive fancy ones. Have you looked into adding rock dust to your soil to add minerals. Good idea
I plan to buy and use a green house.
This is so nice thanks for this knowledge
if you could give description in text regarding dimension and type of poly material used it would be much more useful. we are interested in trying out.
It is great work.Very interested to build one at my home
Well done and very informative video. I just recently posted a video on my Greenhouse that I built at my home and was able to obtain some new ideas that I will use in the future. Thanks!
Plant-Smart Living w/ Farmer Fred
This is very admirable work.
Great video with a plethora of useful information. Thanks :)
This is extremely good technology and I want more information about small scale farming green house farming
Very beautiful
very amazing , thanks so much for sharing...
i have liked it.... would love to start one
Am so impressed am also a farmer in Gambia will surely try this method
Yes I'm off house we can try it the Gambia..cuz I train greenhouse in morroco

YASHPAL MORAY can you suggest a company in India who provides greenhouse structures
Thank you dear sir. excellent video!
I think they use it to maintain high humidity for the plants and to keep insects away. Also some crops cannot handle the harsh direct sunlight that exists in the tropics.
Informative!! Superb explanation. Thank you!!
good idea for new genretion yong farmer....
Love that voice!
Thanks!
Did You make it with woodprix?
Tomatoes basically are self pollinating and do not need insect pollination. Gentle shaking of the branches is really all they need to transfer pollen from one flower to the other.
Cool, very ingenious, but why do you need a greenhouse in the tropics ?
Very informative,thank you.
Thank you for this, l am inspired.
Inspired. Thanks so much
If it rain heavily, can it withstand it?
Unlike in Ireland, Its too hot in Kenya to grow bountiful tomatoes outdoors. They don't use aquaponics because it isn't low key enough for Kenya. Aquaponics require constant electric supply which is a hindrance.
that can be solved - all things can, just need to seek out the answer - out of box
Nice video. I see you have a large metal water tower/tank, this is also a good idea for small gardens and sharing between close gardens with others, such as a community garden. Perhaps a 5 gallon bucket with a lid and valve for a flexible hose would be good for small gardens, rather than trying to lift a heavy watering can/sprinkler all the time.
great repetition i will like to ask if you can give me more information about the material that i need to build one of may on in the gambia thanks
Very educating video, but can this idea work in north eastern of Kenya ( mandera ) ?
excellent video,
This is good information. Understandable. Lets get to work
Good, what's the cost of low greenhouse
Thank you so much! so inspiring =)
This is well done 👍
Good Video sir
Good work
How thick the the poles in the middle
Posts from locally grown trees, mostly blue gum or wattle which are treated to prevent damage by insects.

Are the crap a weed you get out of that bro awesome
I'm sorry I'm in America how much in American money 60000 Shillings in American money is how much
How can I buy the 200 micron polythene UV protection material
Super! 👍🤠
what kind of tissue do you use to cover the green house ?
Well done.
can i use green house in rainy season?
Interesting i will adoptthe idea.
I love this green house, how do I set up one in Nigeria

im interested....hope syngenta will finance in our area..land is ready...
thanks you this great video,
Great video
Fantastic
Very much interesting and motivational
How will pollination take place yet insects like bees are restricted
I love it how much will cost me in dollars money if I want build in East Africa, ??
HOW DO I GET THAT QUATATION?
Can I use bamboo to construct my greenhouse?
They are doing very well
