I want to grow veggies in hydroponic shelf beds in a greenhouse, year round in my mild northern California climate. I'm thinking tomatoes, peppers, squash perhaps. The few tomatoes I produced in buckets were excellent and I want MORE! :)
I can devote say 10' x 12' with the majority of the slanted roof facing South. I want to spend less than $1500 and I would like to be finished within 5 months or so.
I'm wondering if I can just weld up a frame from say, 1-1/2" square tube, send out sections for powder coating and use recycled armored glass panes to form walls and ceiling?
What approach is working the best for you and what resources do you recommend? What would you have done differently?
Thanks!
