However we can say that we completed building this dome in early November and planted our first crop of salad greens on Nov 13th. We had our first salad on Christmas and by about the 2nd week of January it's been producing at least 2 big salads every day and more. Now the volume for our daily harvest is increasing now that the days are getting longer. We had one night in early December when it was 8below outside and it got to 26 inside the dome. Last week we had a few nights where it was 6 degrees outside and it got down to just 31.4 inside. So we are doing good with no extra heat source. Of course, the greens we are growing can handle the low temps. We just planted our first crop of snow peas. Buying your kit and building this was one of our best decisions we have made.

They're pretty inaccurate. To your list I would add the 2 labs I use (no affiliation), Crop Services International and International Ag Labs. Hi guys, I don’t recommend the home kits.

My name is Jonathan Kraft. I head up the community at GreenJoyment.com. I just came back to Denver (beginning of December) and have just come across your site. I believe I met you at the Denver Green Festival in 2009... Were you there? In any case, I would love to do some tours of Geodesic gardens and share more about your business with our online community of 25,000+ members (www.GreenJoyment.com) Are there domes we could tour in this part of the state? I saw one in Parker on one of the sites, so that is pretty close. I could also come down to Pagosa Springs if there are gardens there... just would like to find some closer that we could tour (and potentially make videos as well of our experience with you - to post on our site as well as on YouTube). (Sample of an older video about solar cooking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6gjxxYkoJI) (More recent video from this summer in India: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLMy-5kqQUY) Please let me know at your convenience if/how we can set something up, and I look forward to hearing back from you. Thank-you for being the change you wish to see in the world! Warm Regards Jonathan Kraft www.GreenJoyment.com (303) 847-0589 Hi!

I'm super excited that you are picking fresh produce in January and there will soon be more to enjoy. My garden has nothing growing in it except for a few over wintering herbs and I'm a little envious of what you are doing over there, but inspired too ;) And as for using all the part of the radish; well that's just awesome; so many people waste the leaves.
