Soil Warming Cables For Better Seed Propagation
We have replaced the Parasene range with Bio-Green due to quality issues we were experiencing with the Parasene units.
A soil warming cable is the ideal way to propagate seeds and cuttings on a greenhouse bench or in a cold frame. The soil in the greenhouse takes time to warm up naturally: with a soil warming cable you are able to plant earlier and raise better specimens. Can be used in conjunction with our Soil Warming Cable Thermostat.
A simple frame can be constructed from wood to form the propagating area required, which is them lined with polythene. The cable is laid onto a 5cm of sharp sand (horticultural) and covered with a further 5cm of sand.
We use these cables and fleece to start our seedlings in February. You don't need expensive greenhouse heaters, we don't use anything else.
