Hi, Stan.  I have used heating cables made specifically to bury in soil for
warming seedlings (temperature is around 70F), outdoors in a cold frame,
and indoors in seedling flats.  I don't know if they would last long out in
the garden - so many damaging elements and chewing critters.  The cables
were not very expensive (at least not if you buy them at a seed store or
farm supplier, rather than a gardening supplies catalogue!).
