[Market-farming] Cooler

Fri Mar 27 21:42:45 EDT 2009


We purchased the cool-bot last yr for cut flowers and I love it.  Our room 
isn't even insulated very well yet :( and it kept things in the 40's during 
really hot weather.  Hope we can build an insulated building and run it 
there soon.
Also you definitely need to get a new air conditioner like they say.  Do 
what they tell you and it will work like a dream.
Sue zone 5 depending on what day it is!
