@emsapowell You could also build one. Get a sheet of that cheap particle board stuff and some pine boards. Paint it really well to prevent water damage and you're good-to-go!

Nice set up you got there.

I've had great success with the Jiffy Greenhouse, like the one you have in the cabinet. I started rutgers, brandy boys, porterhouse beefsteak, and am waiting on the pink brandywines. I keep my actual greenhouse at 70degrees and I don't use heatmats (although, they are not a bad idea at all and do greatly help in germination).

Nice job. I'm going to start mine today.

your tomatoes are as awesome as the background music--,)
how many hours in the day do you keep that light on your plants?

@usc5299 about 17 hrs on, 7 hrs off. i manually turn the lights off before bedtime and on in the morning. I could use an electric timer but i like checking on the plants so havent installed one yet. the heatpad under the tray always stays on to keep the roots warm.

is that a special light or just a CFL?

@nottinmatterz2day hi, they are 32 watt regular compact fluorescent's from Home Depot. And the other light is a regular 4 foot shoplight with 4' fluorescent tubes.

Well done, they look terrific! That looked like real soil they were planted in. Did you just water or did you also feed during that 31 day period?

@19Photographer76 thanks! yes i used garden soil straight from my outside beds. I fed them a few times with half strength fish emulsion fertilizer (1/2 tbsp per gal). The first feeding was around 2 weeks and then once more during the 3rd week.
