I have 6 CFL's 26w in my rubber maid.. I think they produce decent amount of heat
my seedlings are inside party cups with drainage holes... and I water them in the morning with about 150ml of water.. enough to soak the soil .. and then I see some drain through the bottom...
after doing this, about 4-5 hrs later... the soil on the top is bone dry... is this normal?... am I suppsed to be watering it daily? because I Read of people not watering their soaked soil seedling cups for up to 2-3 weeks...
----
Also.. I just bought a walmart acurite thermometer with hygro... (wired one)
Do I follow the "outdoor" or "indoor" temp?... the homescreen seems to default to "outdoor"
and my outdoor is always around 10 degrees hotter... indoor = 82-83 outdooe = "93-94"
