There's natural light in the new space, certainly potential for coffee hydroponics :D
Also hello, welcome :)
Also hops for brewing own beer?

I've thought about this too but I think you will struggle for decent light for good growth!
Something to get the kit higher in the skylights might work as the outside areas are waaaaa to small for practical return!
Could probably fit something hung over the craft area skylight. We'll have plenty of unused space vertically so it would be good to make use of it.
Would not easily object to a plan involving the phrase roof full of stars

I'll see you on Tuesday for the brainstorming.

Solar panels as a reason for access to the roof were bought up with the landlord who did not like the idea and we dropped it as not important from negotiations so pretty unlikely sorry.
Your average human consumes about 100x more in food value than is useful for electricity. The amount of effort required for any real work is insane. Maybe you could power the rack, or a Sauron...
I would argue that most cyclists do not eat more than the average at driver!

They are probably just healthier
I shall do my best to turn up this Tuesday to storm some brains. I have several thoughts.
I didn't make it last night as my throat is a bit bad at the moment and loud talking wasn't possible. For the same reason I'm avoiding the dust in new space, but I will be in for most, if not all, of Sunday.
Did anything happen last night about planning a green space?
Hi all,I've been meaning to show up to a Tuesday night, but exceptional personal events have prevented me so far. As it happens, I work at Skybet and sit next to a certain Mr. Ranyard. Once I get my personal life sorted out I'd like to contribute to the new Hackspace.I grow a lot of vegetables and stuff as well as being a techie, so it would be fun to build a self-monitoring green space if you have the physical space. I seem to remember someone mentioning you have some sunlight in the new hackspace and I'm sure I can make some use of it, with perhaps some assistance from some LED grow lights I already own. My initial idea was to try growing some coffee plants hydroponically and, if successful, brewing some very special Café Au Hack next year.Regards,Gary
I'm late to the discussion, but...I'm a big fan of a simple PVC pipe hydroponics system along one of the walls in the space. Not just for the geekery, but it think it'd both be aesthetically pleasing and be pleasing to new/potential members when they come to visit.This is the kind of project I'd happily slightly increase my membership fee for, if it helped cover electricity costs. I wonder if some kind of Patreon system could work for people who want to get involved with group projects that have an small ongoing cost.
