Mop sink ok in greenhouse?
Someone gave me a stainless steel sink with faucet (used to be in a
doctor's office) to use in my greenhouse. A friend said that rather than have the cabinet built which this sink would require, I should get a mop sink on legs. It would be cheaper and would work well enough for GH purposes. This is my first GH, and I know nothing. Any reason not to use a mop sink? Thx. T-L |

Plus they add that needed humidity and help to provide heat in the winter. |

I personally like the idea of building an attractive cabinet for the stainless steel sink. |

The nature of the question leads me to believe that this person would never have discovered marine plywood. I can't explain why. It's just my impression. |
