Greenhouse: Building a geodesic dome greenhouse, 1 by LariAnn

OK, here's a pic from the vault; it shows the finished dome with shade cloth in the background and one of my hybrid EEs (Alocasia portora) in front. The Alocasia is over 4 feet tall and the dome is about 10' to the apex (20' diameter dome overall). I did not make a special door opening, but instead made a triangular door that was hung within one of the dome triangles.

I plan for my new dome to be set on a platform built on concrete pylons so as to avoid rot. The location I have picked is the lowest part of the yard so the dome will be accessible via a small bridge and after heavy rain, will be in the middle of a pond! Can't wait to get started, but have a couple other projects ahead of it.
