Re: everything has just stopped

I'd be real cautious with the 250 watt bulb.  I used the 150 watt last year.  
One thing I didn't mention was that I had the light above my cold frame and I
also didn't have any ventialtion space on that first day.  That could be why
the temp got so high.

If I recall correctly, It finally worked well when I had the light about 2
feet above the cold frame.  The top of the cold frame was about one foot
above the soil (it was a short cold frame because I did a mound that looked
like a volcano....dug out in the middle about 10 inches down to where the
seeds were actually planted).

The total distance (that worked well) from the light bulb (shining through
the top of the cold frame) to the soil surface where the seeds were buried
was about 3.75 feet.

Hope this info helps.............be careful !!!
