Hey Nexus lovelies, So, I was returning from a foray to a Forgotten Tower (Forgotten Dungeons, highly recommend), and I needed to make some more potions. So I went to my Breezehome (thanks Elianora), to check on my plants growing in the beds outside...which is an excellent addition. However, there are only six soil spots. Which is a reasonable number, for two grow beds, and for the size of the house. But, this got me thinking. Is there a mod that lets you purchase a dedicated greenhouse? Not for living in (Though it would probably be advantageous for there to be a bed and some storage, and an alchemy lab for sure), but dedicated for that sole purpose: growing. Farming. Us Dragonborn can go through a metric f*#@ load of potions on a longer dungeon run, and even with mods that add a reasonable amount more ingredients to alchemists shops, that isn't always enough. And buying them all the time feels pretty cheap. So what's the solution? Grow your own s#*!. I'm sure I'm not the only one who uses an excellent house mod like Eli's Breezehome, and doesn't want to go buy, build, and manage an entirely separate house just for growing. Here's the picture: Imagine a largely glass building in Whiterun or Riverwood, or outside Falkreath since that place is green af and needs some love, or Solitude even, full of planting beds, and pots. A static, but immersive, irrigation and watering system. Ingredients hanging from nets, ready to be harvested, or sold (hold that thought). A separate room with ingredient storage and a dope ass alchemy lab, like you see in Rayek's End. You can purchase the building, from the local Jarl, or maybe from a merchant who's had enough with being up to elbows in soil, and get to business. The basic necessity would be the building, full of fertile soil. Anything extra would be dope ass flavor, for extra immersion. Adding onto that, as even though a personal greenhouse, just a greenhouse, would be amazing, what if you could hire employees, expand your horizons a bit? You could, perhaps at the expense of some of your hard-grown ingredients, sell them to others, and bring in a bit of a profit. It's your own shop. The Green Dragon, we could call it (get it? There's a few things there. I'm not clever.) Tl;dr Someone should build a purchasable, dedicated greenhouse for the Dragonborn to grow s#*!. And maybe sell s#*!. Anyone game? Or am I crazy? P.S. : Another idea, which would be great. Add in a numbers ledger, like for the thieve's guild radiant quests, and add the building into the list of merchants you can sneak in and fudge. How hilarious would it be to run numbers for or case your own business? Any feedback/takers welcome. Thanks guys, Aralias
