Thats crazy!

 

[robthered]

Wow that's pretty awesome

Now I'm wonder if its cheaper to build a greenhouse out of lego rather than buying a real kit hah.

 

[Nevermore]

That's crazy... though i just looked at a lego kit last week at target.... holy batman robin.... $40 bucks for a castle set. Those things are expensive!!!!

That's pretty awesome..

@Nevermore Yeah, my son wanted a bunch of lego sets fro Christmas and I saw the prices and my jaw hit the floor. I swear when I was a kid they were much cheaper. So, all my family that asked what he wanted for Christmas I told them he wanted Legos... haha

 

[pappydew]

Wow

That's actually a great idea, they should sell greenhouse kits like they do lego models! More compact and easy to build.

Yeah, but that's for a friggin' CASTLE, man! How expensive could a little greenhouse be?!

I did the math earlier..
I found a 50 pack of clear Lego bricks on Amazon for $10.
There are 200,000 clear bricks used to build that greenhouse.
200,000 divided by 50 = 2000 50 brick packs.
2000 packs x $10ea. = $20,000 to build that GH if you buy from Amazon.com.

I know, right. Have fun with that one..

 

[jbradt]

Very, very cool.

 

[mass]

Very, very cool.

Not $20,000 cool though. It IS cool that he's using Legos as his growing media though. Probably a $5,000 media.

Was James May involved?

 

[Heli]

I wonder if you could grow neps in legos... Anyone want to try?

200,000/50 = 4000 50 brick packs
4000 packs x $10ea. =$40,000 to build that GH if you buy from Amazon.com
