What Is the KingDome 60 Foot Dome Greenhouse?

The 60 Foot Dome is KingDome’s largest geodesic dome greenhouse kit. This particular model is a 6-frequency (6V) design. Triangulated frames use 2x4 struts treated with eco-treatment options and mounted on top of a treated 2x6 base that sits at either 2 or 4 feet tall. Because of its size, KingDome targets this greenhouse toward commercial use instead of hobbyists.

Reasons to Choose a 60 Foot Geodesic Greenhouse Kit

Regardless of style or specific design, geodesic greenhouses share several major structural advantages. Unlike standard post-and-beam buildings, a geodesic dome’s structural integrity is distributed across many small triangles rather than a few load-bearing walls. This makes them significantly stronger relative to their surface area. The curved exterior sheds wind and heavy snow loads efficiently, while sunlight hits the interior from various angles throughout the day, maximizing light distribution and encouraging natural airflow.

Growing Applications

As the smallest model KingDome rates for commercial-sized food production, the 60 Foot Dome is best suited for serious growers, larger community growing operations, farm-to-school programs, and off-grid homesteaders. Owners of smaller homesteads or hobby farms may be better served by the 30, 40, or 50 foot models.

DIY Assembly and Installation

Assembly is not included in the base kit price. You have the option to build it yourself, hire a KingDome supervisor to oversee and direct your local crew, or contract with KingDome’s full professional installation team. Detailed pricing for each option is listed on the Dome Options page.
