Here are the written instructions for the stand if you'ld like to make one. and pix of the sections along with the final stand. Just add lights, shelving, (I use thin pressed plywood) to lay on each shelf to set trays onto. I got the origonal plans from Fine Gardening magazine more than 15 years ago, tried to find again on their website to no avail, so I drew up plans as best I could....lol. Don't laugh too much it works!!!! Each shelf gets 2, 4ft shop lights from chains or cuphooks placed on a 1x2, placed on shelf and then particle board shelf on top. so there ya are...my set up.

Pix 3: left has the actual shelf unit. To the right is one of the end units.
Pix 4 is a shelf unit

Whole thing is probably about $100 worth of lumber, but I'm just guessing. Shop lights are now about $12 ea at Home Depot, and bulbs are about $2-8 each. Depends if you go with a warm and a cool or all cool. Grow light bulbs are even more $$. I pretty much use all cool, (cheaper)
