I remember sunny summer afternoon Sunday naps in the green grass in my back yard, as Pop read the paper in a busted up lawn chair. The things that stand out in my memory are how everything looked blue when I would opened my eyes and also how relaxing those lazy days were sleeping in the grass.
I have seen people grow grass in flower pots in the house and was inspired to create a day bed with real grass and blue grow lamps.
Sod Bed-- vfrackis, Jan 16 2016 Hahahahaha http://www.littleth...m_campaign=projects [2 fries shy of a happy meal, Feb 06 2016] [+] Comfy. But, blue lamps would tend to keep one from falling asleep.-- FlyingToaster, Jan 16 2016 blue lamps Optional then-- vfrackis, Jan 16 2016 well, you could have them on when it's not being used as a bed, but are you sure grass uses blue light to grow ?-- FlyingToaster, Jan 16 2016 I am so glad this was the grass kind.-- bungston, Jan 17 2016 It's pasture bed time mister!-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Jan 17 2016 [+] one might enjoy some grass while enjoying their grass bed.-- whatrock, Jan 17 2016 [+] for [2 fries]'s comment.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jan 17 2016 Is it necessary to make the bed in the morning, or do you leave it a lawn ?-- 8th of 7, Jan 17 2016 You need more than one of these. Otherwise constant use of a single sod bed would kill the grass. You need to be able to use different beds to give the previous one(s) time to recover from such things as light-blockage.-- Vernon, Jan 17 2016 So, a giant and elaborate framework which rotates a fresh sod bed from the rack mounted on the outside wall of your house, through a sealed hatch into your bedroom.-- pocmloc, Jan 17 2016 /recover from such things as light-blockage/
This would be a problem if you tended to sleep for many days at a time. For those who wake up more or less at sunrise, this problem could be addressed by unmaking your bed in the morning.-- bungston, Jan 17 2016 "Honest, Officer Plimpkin. I thought it was grass, not Grass."-- popbottle, Jan 17 2016 O2 would still be seeping out, even at night, for sweet sleeping airs.-- wjt, Jan 19 2016 And speaking of seeping out, less than perfect continence in such a bed would be welcome.-- bungston, Jan 19 2016 I can think of only one issue...worms. Worms love sod. But I don't care, they could wiggle their way all night. +-- blissmiss, Jan 19 2016 //O2 would still be seeping out, even at night,//
Uh, would it? I'm trying to remember the various plant biochemistries out there, but I am pretty sure that grass would only be respiring during the hours of darkth.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jan 19 2016 Not too long, not too short.[+]-- Voice, Jan 21 2016 This guy built one. [link]-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Feb 06 2016 /t grass would only be respiring during the hours of darkth./
True, but the seeping out of O2 happens during photosynthesis in the day.-- bungston, Feb 06 2016 random, halfbakery
