I saw someone running a vevor chinese diesel heater for their greenhouse. Seems like a good solution. Just run an extension cord and a cheap 12V power supply. I’m sure that compost throws a lot of heat though!

That sounds like damping off…watering is crucial in the first stages

216 seedlings planted (3 per cell) Mostly tomatoes and peppers, but a bunch of onions, basil, kale and some companion flowers. Posted some saved pepper seeds from my super hots from last year with the hope that I get some cool cross breeds.
Have an abundance of seeds so I planted 3 per hole with the goal of a 100% germination rate. Some of the pepper seeds are a few years old, so we’ll see how that goes.
Decided to just wrap my human-grade heating pad in a towel instead of buying a dedicated one and spending another $40.
Fingers crossed.

We actually decided to try seedling mix and cells, as I have a suspicion the cells will have more room for root growth and won’t require re-potting as soon. Have always used the pucks so we’ll see how it goes. It was slightly cheaper than the jiffy 72 pack
How many san marz’ do you actually plant in the garden? That’s gonna be a lot seedlings

I’d definitely be interested . I did buy some jalapeños from the store yesterday and was gonna go that route but you seem to do well with your peppers so might have better luck with your seeds!
Where you located ?

East Van. These seeds might be cross breeds though since they were grown near other varieties. I can mail some to you if you’re far away

I have a galvanized raised bed in my yard that needs to be relocated as part of a backyard reno. In the bed lives garlic and strawberries. The strawberries seem simple enough to dig up and transplant but how do you go about moving the garlic at this time of the year?
