Holistic Indoor Gardening: A Panoptic View Through the Lens of Earthship Greenhouse Management

by Daniel Dynan, Helen Rynaski (Editor)

Holistic Indoor Gardening is a distillation of personal experience, research, and education from an Earthship insider's perspective into a practical and straightforward guide. Earthships are a form of autonomous and sustainable housing. There are six design principles to Earthship construction. The principles are building with natural and recycled materials, thermal/solar heating and cooling, solar and wind electricity, water harvesting, contained sewage treatment, and food production. Holistic Indoor Gardening is a long-overdue comprehensive look into the last design principle of food production. Since the inception of Earthship educational programs, students have been calling out for a definitive manual on this topic. This book applies to far more than just Earthship structures and illuminates a unique method of indoor gardening inspired by years spent working in Earthship greenhouses. Whether you struggle to keep houseplants alive or are a master gardener, this handbook will address every aspect needed to operate a clean, happy, and healthy indoor garden. The goal of this work is to equip better and serve the individuals who are seeking a simpler and more natural alternative to the destructive and complicated farming practices propagated today. The sincere intention for this book is that it will encourage, edify, and empower budding and seasoned gardeners on their walk closer with the Earth.
