1.'36"W X 60"H X 19"D' 4-tier Greenhouse 2. Cool mist 3. Ultrasonic humidifier 4. Tubing(home dept) 5. 8 Cat Litter pans(publix$5) 6. Shrink wrap 7.Plexi glass sheets 8.Tubing 9.Small PVC pipe 10.Drill 11.Different size hole saws 12.Different size paddle bits Alrighty Im kind of new here, and I thought I would do a lil write up on Green house/Martha setups. There any many others like it but this is my Take. Im going with a '36"W X 60"H X 19"D' 4-tier greenhouse. I googled "4-tier greenhouse" and ended up ordering it from Amazon.com it was about $50 VERY VERY fat shipping through Amazon. (2 days) I recommend using this instead of a Martha. Those rigs are flimsy and dont hold much weight.
Now for piping in the humidifiers air supply. I went out to home dept and got a few sheets of plexi glass about $3 something per sheet. Then I used a 6 in. "Hole Saw" to cut out 8 round pieces of Plexi Glass. Then a 1 3/4 in. paddle bit to put a hole in the 8 round pieces. These will help support the weight of the hoses. For the ultrasonic humidifier. Then for the cool mist I used a 2 in. hole saw to cut out 8 round pieces of plexi. Then I use a 1 1/2 in. paddle bit to make a hole in the 8 new pieces of plexi. AN DENN!!! And den u "Plastic Epoxy" the plexi circles to each other on the in side and out of the Green house. As for the bottom of the Green house it comes open from factory. SO..... I got "Shrink wrap" and wrapped the whole bottom (to catch water that drips of the walls)Every once in a while I towel dry the bottom of GH I Use big cat litter pans for casings from "Publix" Two of them just barely fit on one shelf. Which means maximum fruiting space. Im no "expert" but I hope this helps someone. If anyone see s something wrong Im doing please correct me.

Eww you have wayyyy too much initiative. Lol I will always be way too lazy to make something like that.
The only thing you may have a problem with is back pressure. And just to nit-pick I think it might be nice to flip that first picture clockwise so people don't break their necks trying to look at it. Other than that it looks pretty sweet.
What kind of settings do you plan on using?(timer)

Very cool!
I think I have the SAME greenhouse deal coming from, that's right, Amazon...
I have a coolmist humidifier I intend to plumb to it, but no ultrasonic. Hopefully I can get it squared away where it's low maintenance.
If you wanted to, can you remove any of the shelves? I have some grain jars going now with pink oysters and I was wondering if I could remove some shelves and hang some 8 inch tubes in it?

you should put perlite down on the bottom to absorb excess water 
And the plastic cover rips pretty easily, so those tubes plugged into the side might cause a rip sooner or later...

The greenhouse breaks down into single rails, 4 per up/down, 3 across for the shelf, 2 for sides, the shelves sit like an old style phone over the 3 rails, you could leave out the middle rail and have a 2 story section without shelves

Ya perlite would work but I rather not have to worry about contams in dirty perlite. Plus not that much water adds up down there. Towel works great! I ve had it for a while now and nothin ripping yet. Hopefully the plexi glass rings will prevent that. In case that did happen I can order a replacement plastic from original vendor.
