ok, I was thinking last night ....what could I fix up that would mimic the sun or rather the warmth of the sun...I googled heat pads for your plants...I don't think I could find any rope lights ...think that might work....but then got to thinking...hmmm my small aquarium with the light ...why cant I put aluminum foil on the bottom and then put the lid back on and maybe that would mimic the a heat pad for the plants....I use it sometimes minus the aluminum foil to keep baby chicks in if I only have one or two that hatch or for sickly acting baby chicks....so this is what I did:
I took the 10 gallon aquarium and cleaned it out...
put aluminum foil on the bottom and around the 3 sides...
I wanted the front without so I can look in and see if anything is sprouting
I then put my seed cups in and put lid on and turned on light....
might check temp later with my thermometer I use to the incubator...
I will let you know if this works or not, thought I would give it a try..
I have daylily seeds, rose of Sharon seeds, hollyhock seeds
ENJOY!
