Greenhouse 2026¶
Status¶
Initial project year.
The greenhouse is treated as a controlled development environment rather than a full production facility.
Main Assumption¶
The available greenhouse area may be larger than the area that should be actively developed during the first season.
Initial use is intentionally limited.
Main Objectives¶
- assess the structure;
- assess water access;
- define working zones;
- establish first beds;
- establish compost and mulch cycles;
- grow limited food crops;
- document results.
Initial Area Allocation¶
| Zone | Target Area | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Active beds | 80-120 m² | Soil development and food crops |
| Cover crop area | 100-300 m² | Biomass and observation |
| Compost/materials | 20-50 m² | Soil inputs and processing |
| Paths/workspace | variable | Access and operations |
| Reserve | remaining area | Future development |
Priority Checks¶
Before scaling production:
- Water availability.
- Structure condition.
- Access and storage.
- Existing irrigation equipment.
- Existing soil condition.
- Available organic matter sources.
First Season Focus¶
The first season is not evaluated by total yield.
The first season is evaluated by:
- successful establishment of cover crops;
- mulch production;
- compost system creation;
- survival and growth observations;
- water demand data;
- soil behavior under mulch.
Expected Food Output¶
Limited quantities of:
- cherry tomatoes;
- herbs;
- cucumbers;
- zucchini;
- leafy greens in autumn.
Food output is useful, but it is not the main success criterion for 2026.
