My Green House (nursary) is a failure

The green House that I had conceived and for which I had spent enough money is a failure till now.  We  purchased the shade net from coimbatore through courier.  That is not of good quality. It is tearing in all places.  Earlier my team had constructed this with Casurina sticks and wrapped them.  While the ceiling is somewhat intact the outer wall is not stable. That was required to stop the warm wind from blowing inside.  The action of wind and dog is pulling it apart. 

Net net, we are uable to use the full potential of the nursary.  The mud floor is also uneven and there is soil erosion on the sides.

We need to re-think. Once the rain stops we need to do the following;

a) Increase the ceiling height.  We need a wooden stool for the farm. Otherwise Subbu is able to tie the poles only at arms length.

b) No need for outer wall wrapping. Let us remove it.  Let the wind blow inside. If required we can protect the tender plants with some wooden planks.

c) Need to buy good quality shade net from nearby town. Even if it costs money.

Some vegetable seeds are growing in the bags

The shade net in bad condition.
One moringa plant has escaped and is growing. let it grow...

Green Shade Net completed atlast !

After a lot of persuasion, waiting and followup,  a simple Shade for Nursary plants have been created.  Hope we can grow vegetable seeds underneath once we buy polythene bags.

Shadenet is ready

Started by procuring the shade net clothing through phone and getting it couriered to the farm from  a coimbatore supplier.  It cost Rs. 2100 for a 4.2 meters x 50 meters bundle (10 feet x 160 feet).

Inside the Shade net.  The floor has to be raisen in future.
Presently by blocking the gaps with mud, the purpose is done.
we need to purchase polythene bags for growing

Then it was pending for festival, sick holidays etc..  Finally yesterday the required poles  (casurina) was purchased and a large shade area of 25 feet x 15 feet created in one shot.   The poles were anchored on the mud and for strength additional poles were tied in cross fashion.  2 feet into the ground, two feet above the pandal.  Local design. Just serving the purpose. I got the photos mailed yesterday to me. I was surprised to see the chosen place. I thought of another place. This generally happens for remote execution. We need to further improve on the communication.  Anyway, good job done by my local team.

Ideally I did not want to cover all the sides, but team had done a brilliant job of half covering.  This is required to stop the warm air at ground level for nursary plants, at the same time providing transparancy and air circulation above hip level.

Objective is realised.
