GREEN THUMB SEED BED 
FRAME: Made of 22 gauge cold rolled 
steel, no nuts, bolts or screws are re- 
quired for assembly. The corners are 
made with interlocking seams. The top 
of the frame is flanged to prevent leak- 
age and to support insulation. 
INSULATION: The frame is insulated 
with FIBERGLAS* equal to three times 
the insulating value of dry white pine. 
Fiberglas is a mineral insulation and 
will not support vermin or termites. 
SASH: Sash is made in four sections 
(18” x 341%”) glazed with VIMLITE the 
Celanese* plastic glazing that permits 
the passage of ultraviolet and infra-red 
rays, the growing rays of the sun. Vim- 
lite* has a bursting strength of 200 lbs. 
per square inch, hailproof. The sections 
are attached to the frame with a pat- 
ented device that permits the sash to 
be removed in only one position and can- 
not come off due to winds, etc. 
GENERAL: The frame measures 70” x 
34”, 15” at back, 9” at front. Finished 
in green with Roxalin Flexible Finish, 
it is virtually scratch and weather
