    It is certainly better that nothing or a wooden structure but I would not count on it being radiation free. Long waves can certainly come through galvanized steel of that gauge. As for great uses of silos, Campbell Cox has one converted to a guest house on his farm and it is about a cool as it gets. Of course getting a head start on your plantings with cool burning LED grow lights would certainly be another use for them as well. You must really like early tomatoes....MG
