Buy Yourself A Mini Greenhouse

Buy Yourself A Mini Greenhouse CROPS New Techniques 23-6-13 "It's possible to squeeze another two months of growing time out of Mother Nature, with these simple new greenhouses that set up in less than two minutes," says Earl Senchuk, president of Senco, Inc., about his company's line of mini greenhouses. "Sales are exploding, mostly from word of mouth - neighbors of people who've already bought one of our units. They see how well it works and they want one themselves," notes Senchuk. He says the company's line of mini greenhouses is ideal for amateur gardeners but that the larger units could also be used by anyone looking to set up a sideline business starting plants. Senco greenhouses require no special tools to erect. The "Germinator" is the biggest model, measuring 8 ft. long by 5 ft., 11 in. wide. It's 7 ft., 2 in. tall with vents on both ends. The large zipper door can be held open with Velcro. It sets up in just three minutes. You just spread apart the end walls and insert three spreaders. The frame is constructed of welded aluminum. When the season's over, it collapses down quickly for storage. It's covered by a high-density polyethylene that's tear resistant and UV-treated for durability in sunlight. Earth anchors are included to hold it down in winds (it's been tested in winds up to 60 mph). There are built-in shelf supports along either side. Available in 4 by 6-ft., 6 by 8-ft., and 8 by 8-ft. models. The 4 by 6-ft. model sells for $289 plus S&H; the 8 by 8-ft. model for $369 plus S&H.
