That looks well worth the obvious effort you've put in to building it - I have greenhouse envy too!

Very nice,    

The only thing I would add is the Chinese green house style where they roll down a blanket at night  to hold in the heat.       Some have automated this.


I bought the plans for one of these greenhouses, and I have been collecting parts to do this on the cheap watching craigslist


I have also been asking myself the question could I take a geo greenhouse up to the next level with a mini split added......        I have been growing more and more inside with a mini split and plants like us love not having temp swings.


Thank you for sharing your greenhouse design, it looks great.

Oh, and another thought I had....


I was thinking what if a person was to build one of these over a cave,      It would seem that one could exchange the air with the cave and not need to run all the pipe to get the temps.....
