Harold,
I'll be the first to admit I am not a horticulture student from
Purdue. My degree was in aviation technology. I am an air traffic
controller. Growing pumpkins is just one of my ways of getting away from it
all. I know the idea of using the a waterbed heater sounds a little radcial
but I've found it actually maintains a very steady temp + or - five degrees.
I've used a digital thermometer in the past to monitor this. There is one
thing I would like to know concerning lighting. Do the fluorescent grow
bulbs or the standard blue colored grow bulbs provide better light for my
young plants? I am currently using a fluorescent grow light but it doesn't
seem to work as well.
stay in touch
Brad
