Greenhouse: Building a geodesic dome greenhouse, 1 by tropicalaria

From the other side of the dome you can see the 2x4s that we used to prop up the pieces as we connected them in. At this point none of these are technically required anymore, since the dome can hold itself up, but we left them in place for greater stability (especially if we encounter very much wind) until we can finish the other side.

We added a bit more to the right side after this picture was taken, but I need to go get some more metal strapping before we can finish. It's going to take a few more people to get the double hexagon lifted up on the open side, I think.

Return to standard time is about to rob all of my sunlight in the evenings, I'm afraid. Good thing I have the 1000 watt halogen. :)
