Re: Transplanting seedlings

Hi Bill,
This is a miniature greenhouse made out of styrofoam and measures
about 12 inches by 10 inches.  If you had a Garden Supply Co. catalog,
you would be able to see the pictures.  It's economical, trustworthy,
and can be used from season to season.  Sometimes, I even stock up at
the end of the season at K-Mart who sell them for about $4.00.  It's
the most convenient and successful way I have found to start seedlings.

Enjoy the season.
Sincerely, Dr. Norm Park
