It's a super article. Thanks! Re heating pads: I use one only...where it's
dry (in my office, I confess!) and do have trouble keeping it from getting
the soil temps. too warm. I find I have to turn it off and on during the day
to keep the thermometer below 75F. But it's great for starting tomatoes, I
gotta admit. Have had some of the seeds I've started germinate in 2 days.
