26′ Growing Dome Yields Produce in February!

After a quick trip to our 26′ Growing Dome, I was thrilled to discover over 4 pounds of mixed salad greens and the first of our sugar snap peas ready to eat. What a treat! As our Dome is located 18 miles from where we now live, I only get to the Dome about once every 2 to 3 weeks, and I am absolutely delighted every time I open that door to see all the plants and our 8 fish happily thriving, with no attention from me! It doesn’t get any better than this. I just planted some salad green seedlings, kale, chard, more peas, beets and parsnips seed for that “catch crop”; the one between the winter crop and putting in spring seedlings. The beauty of this, is that until March, the only thing I need to do is keep water in the tank and harvest the food.

  • I agree your viewpoint. My research has shown your points to be true, but I have also read the opposite from other sites like this one. Do you have any thoughts for locating more legitimate ideas on gardening or related topics? I would definitely appreciate it!
