The garden will consist of
planters sized for the growing of fruit, vegetables and herbs, while the sloping profile of the roof
walls will guide rainwater down to a holding tank for
watering food plants.
Planter boxes were built around the
wall within the dome, and initially an aquaponics system using a 2000 liter
water tank took up the central space, but Mikkelsen ended up swapping the aquaponics system for more traditional grow beds, because he said the system needed too much of his attention.
