Greenhouse Collapses For Storage
If you've ever thought about getting a small greenhouse, you'll like this new one that simply folds down to 5 in. wide for storage.
  Called the "Germinator," the flexible greenhouse is made to extend the growing season up to two months in the spring and fall.
  The frame is made of aluminum and the cover is made out of high-density polyethylene. There are vents on the ceiling and walls to control the temperature. The cover is laminated with polyester strands in order to reduce solar damage.
  The Germinator comes in two sizes, 5 by 8-ft. and 8 by 8-ft. Each model arrives via UPS and can be assembled in less than 2 hrs. using an electric drill and other basic tools. Once assembled, it sets up and collapses in minutes.
  The 8-ft. Germinator holds 24 flats of plants. With an optional ready-to-fit shelf system you can double the capacity. The unit comes with six, 15-in. earth anchors. The Germinator has been tested in high winds and hail.
  The bottom of the cover is reinforced with kick-guards at the corners and the entry. The door zips open with one hand and is wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair.
  The 5 by 8-ft. Germinator sells for $425 and the 8 by 8-ft. sells for $495. The extra shelving kit sells for $85.
