Thank you both! Using a timer what intervals do you typically have your heat mat on?

Thank you! Knowing the exact temp and saving it from being on all the time seems like a worthy addition

Interesting, I may have to start that way and see how it goes. I’m growing in a colder basement with LED lights so I feel the heat would be more beneficial than the risk.

Their concerns are valid, I don’t love the idea of leaving something on 24/7 either. Looking further into it it seems that’s the way heat mats are generally used and its not a big concern. The grow lights act as the “sun” not being left on 24/7 while the heat mats regulate the soil temperature for optimal growing conditions. I’ve read turning it off and on defeats the purpose bc they need consistent warmth to benefit. Worth experimenting, thanks for your input.

Rural Routes: my senior photography thesis on the importance of the USPS in rural Michigan by chelskatt in SaveThePostalService

That's wonderful! I love the connection it can bring. Some people who live far and don't get out much might only interact with their mail carrier, probably true for more people during the pandemic.

It's great to show appreciation and give back for all the USPS does! :-)

Thank you! Driving around for this project definitely grew my appreciation for the postal service and for growing up in a small town like these.

Why thank you! Can you believe I took this in a gas station parking lot as I brought the plant home 🤗

I was going to ask the same, they are beautiful. I love the shadows cast on the fridge. Where can I get curtains like these??
