Maybe I should call this a home depot mini greenhouse. I raid the discount lumber bin at Home depot on a regular basis. 2x4 lumber in approximately 4 foot lengths sell there for fifty one cents and most of this project was made from those discounted pieces. The 1/2 inch thick 6 inch by 6 foot long fence boards on the sides sell for about two dollars on a regular bases. The flexible black water pipe is cheap too as are the one screw clamps that hold the bows firmly in place. The little strip of wood down the top of the bows is not really necessary but it sure does firm things up. Even the plywood in the base of the bed came from the discount bin. Plastic doubled up makes a water bed for bottom watering your seedlings.
