Overview
Since this type of furniture is often exposed to soil, water, and sunlight, it must be made from weather-resistant materials if it is not to decay rapidly. Cedar wood is a popular rot-resistant choice, but a budget-friendly option is pressure-treated lumber with a weather-resistant finish. Plastic potting benches are affordable, and metal construction may be considered if corrosion can be controlled. Some potting benches are small and portable; others are fixed into the side of a greenhouse. Some designs include a dry sink for soil storage, a water or drain hookup, or a cold frame.
Potting bench is a workbench or outdoors, garden and lawn item.
