Like many others, we've been giving serious thought to the production of produce and other food sources, under "controlled conditions".
You don't have to be a survivalist or a prepper to see the sense in this.
And it leads me to wonder if it's "economically possible, and/or practical, to use a 20' High Cube ISBU Shipping Container to become the "structure" for an LED based growth system.
Let's face it... it'd be weather resistant, easily securable, capable of housing it's own photovoltaic arrays and water reclamation systems, vent system, etc...
Has anyone else given this "serious thought"?
I've seen the "pie in the sky - gold plated ISBU" varieties, but I'm thinking about doing this "realistically."
And, anyone that knows me already knows I have several containers that I could use as donor carcasses, so acquiring the Corten box isn't even remotely an issue...
I'm eager to hear people's views and opinions.![Razz :-P :-P](/styles/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
