Have you ever wished you had a GREENHOUSE area in your RV?

Just a cupola or something - but one designed just for plants to travel with you, even vegetables if need be.

How on earth could a thing like that be made?

2) Is it possible to build an RV that is a travelling GARDEN?

What a radical idea - in not even an air conditioned space, TONS of lettuce and salad stuffs can grow all year round. They just need light, soil, and water

Grow lights. Think indoor growing operation. Might have to find some 12v ones or get an inverter of some sort for when you're driving. Probably have to get creative w/ containers and watering but it would certainly be doable.

Convert the back of a toyhauler. They have lots of room, typically larger widows, a big back door to open and can handle the weight.

I keep thinking of an AMC Pacer loaded full of plants, being towed behind a huge Tropical or Fleetwood diesel pusher!!!

Could be the most perfect use for one of those silly cars since they were introduced!

toy hauler is the solution, imho. With the lights and then on nice days, drop the back door.

So you just build some big flower boxes.

Issue is wt. Dirt begins to weigh alot.
