The Question Is......

How much soil or buckets of soil would it take to sustain one person,
multipled by 2 in order to preserve enough to get through
the winter, but grown in a greenhouse to extend the season?

Thanks.

btw, can anybody recommend a good quality greenhouse fabric, the stuff
that covers a greenhouse to let light in, but not water and lasts years?


You have to remember that all the dust that is blowing around is also
radioactive.
That will contaminate anything that is not dust proof.

I would think it would be easier and more productive to just scrape
off the top layer of a grader plot and then erect the green house over
that, instead of looking for a proper slab and removing that.

Look at how big a garden needs to be normally, then look at putting a
green house over that.
