Default Richard's Indoor Propagation

Here's my indoor setup for propagation this year (quite scaled down from previous years! ) This is in the sun room of my house, facing ENE.

In the photo can be found:
  • A cheapo 2' x 4' folding table with a piece of particle board on top for uniformity and insulation
  • On the particle board there are two 4' x 1' heating mats
  • On the heating mats are 4 rectangular 72-hole plug trays with hoods and drip trays
  • Overhead is a "Sun Blaster 48" - a commodity 4' by 8-bulb T5HO 6500K fixture
  • The lamp fixture is suspended by a commodity "Sun Stand 2" stand.

The heating pads are controlled by a timer set to come on from 5pm to 9am.
The light fixture is also on a timer from 7am to 4pm.
Next week I'll be filling up the plug trays and the whole growing process begins!
