Take a look inside my walipini – underground greenhouse. See how it’s constructed and what I am growing as I attempt winter gardening or should I say year round gardening. If you would like to see more or have questions, please comment below. We are at approximately, 5000 feet located in Eagle Mountain, Utah.

Apocalyptic Gardening – The Underground Garden

Awesome! Thanks for sharing
Where did you get your Roof structure material????
Please give this video a THUMBS UP & SUBSCRIBE to my channel. THANK YOU!!!

Where can I find architectural designs that I can incorporate into my building permit?
The word walipini being said is something to soothe me to sleep
So cool
Jonny Deuteronomy 1 year ago. Please make a video on what you would do different next time you build a wallipini.
Mo Drums 1 second ago. Yeah that would be nice Apocalyptic Gardner did ya make another and how is it going ? What part of AZ are you located or what altitude ? Making plans to get my gh done this summer 2020 ! Thanks!
Thank you for the video. I have a question about the positioning of the greenhouse. Is the entrance door facing north, south, west or east?
Thanks in advance
Love, so doing how do I build?
Where are you located?
Ready for the apocalypse!
I WOULD NOT be growing orange trees in there
How are your plants doing this year?
very cool brother. keep it up. love to see video of changes. very inspiring.
Please make a video sharing all the things you would do differently!
I am looking seriously at an in ungrounded greenhouse
update ?
hey thanx from North Canada for the upload. Very nice setup!
Yet I would at 3:00 put at least 2-3 cubic yards of planting mix per tree so they can develop a substantial root system to support vegetative growth over the next 10 years. Remove the concrete so close to the base of the trees too – it will crack and f@@k up your floor, which will affect the walls and the structural integrity of the Wallipini.
The ones that last over the years usually have rock-gravel beds with 4 inch angled drainage pipes and then successive layers of black earth and planting mix with lots of Humus-MycoRhizal and microbial activity (we do Permaculture:)
Your roof rain gutters should be angled forwards and downwards using gravity to pool the rainwater into tanks at the front-lower elevation area.
Here in Northern Canada the winters can get to -40 Celsius with the wind chill.
keep on uploading bud. love to find videos like this.
I would move the trees away from the concrete wall – I'd be worried that as they get larger their roots would break up the concrete wall.
Nice Trees! I have a 1 year old Avocado Tree me and my Wife started from a Pit 2 winters ago. It sprouted last Spring and is about 5 foot tall now. I have mine in a very large terra-cotta pot in my greenhouse here in Texas. Planning on moving to Colorado before it starts fruiting so I can put it in the ground (after fertilizing a hole). Texas has too acidic soil for it and it’s extremely hot here… not good for avocados outside. Anyhow, thought I would share, like your video
We are looking at the same thing. I was wondering who poured the concrete and how was the steel placed.
its suppose to be ion natural soil this defeats the purpose
fancy walipini
I am wanting to build a walipini in the mountains of No Georgia (elev 2875). I just found your channel tonight, and would like to know what things you would do differently if you were to build another walipini. You may have already addressed it, but if you did, would you please share a link. Thank you.
you should bury some tubes for geothermal cooling/heating, this is a really cool setup!
more cement than plants…
Great video. Congrats on growing what you want, whenever you want. Thanks for sharing!
Cool!
Love the video. If you said, Goji berry bush, they need pollinators. Mine fruited in 1 year. zone 7. Question: how much land do you own that you're able to build this? Suburbs/country?
Yay! I am preparing to do this. This video is helpful! Thank you!

For your next greenhouse you should make your own adobe bricks for it.
One other question is on temp .what have the lowest temps been outside where you live? And what were you able to maintain inside? Then in summer do you have to use a shade cloth to keep from getting to hot? How hot does it get in side? Any stats? So many designs out there.
Hey Ty looking at doing one of these down the line. You said you would have done some things diffrent what were they?
You should pull your thermometer away from the wall. Heat that retains in the concrete may be warmer than whats in the actual greenhouse. So your readings may not be accurate. But i love it!!
