Dear visitors of the site, from the material presented by the author, you will learn how to independently make a budget greenhouse from young birch trees or hazel and a plastic film.

This greenhouse was built in a short time, because the greenhouse was urgently needed, but of course there was no money to buy, and therefore the author decided to do everything to the maximum budget and simple. The basis was taken trunks of young birch trees from the thickets of young birch trees near the cottages.

Many will be indignant and will say that it is impossible to cut trees, they will be fined and the like .. But for example, after the collapse of collective farms, overgrown young birch trees have been growing in villages on abandoned fields for 20 years, where mushrooms are harvested in autumn, not wheat and rye. People look at it normally and take it for granted. As the saying goes, "Each has its own head on its shoulders" and you decide.

Read the laws of your country beforehand in order to avoid trouble later.

The author prepared about 20 trunks 5 cm thick at the base and at least 4 meters long. Then, on the site prepared for the construction of the greenhouse, the arcs began to bend. One thick end of the trunk is stuck into the ground for 15-20 cm, then bend and insert the second thin end in the opposite direction. Be sure to alternate the ends of the trunks (thick-thin) so that the design is stable and durable. Then it is fastened with spacers and crossbars, covered with a film.

And so, let's look at what exactly the author needed?

Materials

1. trunks of young birch, willow or hazel
2. plastic film
3. wire
4. scotch tape
5. board

Instruments

1. ax
2. knife
3. hacksaw
4. roulette
5. pliers
6. shovel

Step-by-step instructions for the construction of a budget greenhouse do it yourself.

The first step was the preparation of the main material in the nearest overgrown weed most often located next to the summer cottage sector, mainly young birch trees that grew weedly, trunk thickness not more than 5 cm (otherwise you will not bend and you need more effort, the optimum base diameter is about 5 cm, length 4 m.) After which everything was delivered to country site of the author. It is necessary to bend the arc immediately, while the wood is wet and damp, if it dries a little and it will break with a bang. They brought and immediately the bend of the arc, collect the frame.

The length of the blank should be at least 4 m, so that when bent in half in the greenhouse, you could stand at full height without stooping.

Then the arcs are bent, we stick the thick end into the ground 15-20 cm, and the thin end is the opposite.

Alternate the ends of the trunks (thin-thick)

Next, we take the steel wire preferably.

And we begin to knit the frame.

Here is such a design.

Inside made a passage and beds.

Tighten with plastic wrap.

The film stretched by a brick we fill with the earth.

At the base we got an earthen blockage)

Made and installed the door

Instead of loops, I used ordinary wire.

Inside the greenhouse.

The bed before planting seedlings.

That's actually such a greenhouse turned out by the author.

We also recommend watching a video where the author talks and shows all the subtleties and nuances in the construction of a budget greenhouse. Happy viewing.

As you can see, everything is quite simple, budget, and if there is a plastic film, then generally free. The design is of course very light, but due to the earthen shaft it is reliable. The frame is enough for a couple of seasons, and then it is already possible to build a capital greenhouse made of polycarbonate and metal. As a temporary way out, there’s nothing even.

A step-by-step instruction is presented to you, so we take and do it. Go for it friends!

This is where I end. Thank you all for your attention!

I read your comment with rapture, how are you doing well and wisely, of course, all thanks to Lukoshenko, Well done man I respect

Maybe, in theory, it should have been like this, but as usual everything was exactly the opposite) For example, my native village, where I was born and grew up in Soviet times, was a rather big collective farm, machinery, tractors, and combine harvesters. The cattle-breeding complex of a cattle only wasn’t even a cow. sheep, pigs. The population is about 200 people. There was a kind village. And now there is absolutely nothing; there are 20 old people left to live out their lives. Horror. After all, it was not ordinary people who were to blame for this, there was normal power like yours, everything was fine, but now Brr-r is reluctant to speak.

This decree just came out ??? ... I thought - it was always ... We had it. Our collective farms did not fall apart in the literal sense - they simply were restructured into the SEC (Agricultural Production Complex). The form of ownership basically became a joint-stock company with a controlling stake in the state. Well, the "farm trifle" was formed everywhere.))) (We somehow do not have particularly large farms! 200-300 ha - this is already considered large. They cannot compete with "state monsters" and build their own processing plants)). So, in the literal sense of the word, there was no destruction anywhere on the collective farms (so that land and buildings were thrown). During the time after the collapse of the USSR, much has changed, of course. Many large "collective farms" during this time acquired their own meat and dairy and canning plants, grew and absorbed the land of small ones. But our ownerless land is somehow completely unusual ... Moreover, now that livestock has abandoned the "grazing" technology of cattle, and the cows are no longer grazed, and the fodder is brought to them, they need huge fields for the production of these feeds. Although they plowed all the former pastures. So, there are no ownerless lands.
And for the "weeds" we always had a responsibility. At the same time, “any form of ownership” is punished - both the enterprise and the owner of the farmyard will receive large fines for unkempt land! I myself paid - from the grandfather the house remained in the village, and somehow my hands did not reach to go mow.And then he stopped and in a former garden a weed rose to the fence.

True, now farmers have already bought up the land abandoned from the villagers for a penny and plowed it. Yes, and a presidential decree recently came out that the land should not be empty. And so we’ve been going to the fields for mushrooms recently, honestly

In the fall, there are a lot of mushrooms in the young birch forest (brown boletus and Volzhanka, even mushrooms came across)))

This is where such horrors then?

Apparently, the author has it in a very "quiet" place, where there are no winds)))).
