After being presenting and placing the first rows of
bottles of the coverage of the greenhouse, which already we explain in the
previous paragraph how they were interlacing, they are adjusting and tightening
with the interior rope in order that they acquire the suitable structure and
some fit perfectly with others.
Later, with the rope every row of bottles is
surrounding itself to join every row with the following one. This step we it will repeat every two bottles of the
row and the rope will pass for the zone of union between bottles to reinforce
the same one and to support the as compact as possible structure.
In the low part of the wings of the greenhouse, fixed
to the arches, we place a wire following the whole line of the same one, in
which later each of the rows will be sticking of bottles.
In the end of each one of the rows of bottles, we knot
a chunk of wire that will be the one that is in use for fixing every row on the
wire.
This way, each of the rows of bottles will be getting
hooked up by the wire, obtaining this way a fixation that allows, besides his
union, to support the sufficient tension in the structure of the cover of the
greenhouse.
As we have commented, the climatological conditions
have prevented us from being employed with continuity at the greenhouse. This
way, we join some rows of bottles inside the Adults' Center; but we have
verified that it is more suitable to prepare the rows in the moment previous to
join them, for question of the expansion of the same ones with the changes of
temperature, for what we prefer waiting for the moments that the climatology it
allows to be working at the exterior, though it supposes delaying the
construction.
As the rows are added, it is continued joining the
same ones with the rope as it explained previously.
To help to spend the thread across the bottles, we
have used a wire to facilitate his step. They are these small details that seem to be
insignificant, but that at last make the labor much simpler and rapid.
The process has been the same during the whole
placement of the cover and we have used some of the blue bottles gathered to
give him a decorative touch to the greenhouse.
The work of placement of the coverage of the
greenhouse we have been combining it with the preparation of the soil of the
same one, which already we will detail in a following paragraph, but we leave
here some images to show the good environment of participation and
collaboration in the joint work realized by our pupils and for that always we
have possessed the collaboration and support of the personal of the Penitentiary
Center.
