and I’ll be sick of the rain soon and then sick of the heat and the ticks and chiggers after that.

$33.50 Germination Kit (Heat Mat, 72 cell tray, bottom tray, 2” vented dome)
$24.00 Heat Mat Temp Controller (used)
$20.00 Grow Light
$77.50 TOTAL (I was at $100)

I like the 2 inch lid better than the 7 inch for strictly germinating seeds.

I’ve got an NVIDIA Shield TV Pro that doesn’t work that I’m selling on ebay and it’s up to $84 with 3 days to go. I’ve seen non working units go for $200 which is what we paid for it new. Inflation is occasionally a good thing. LOL

I’m going to go ahead and buy one seed starting setup for now and see what the Shield goes for. It will probably pay for a second setup plus assortment of trays. Not bad for something that hasn’t been used in a few years because it’s broken. It won’t boot up. Gets stuck at Android animation. Probably an easy fix for someone that’s into that stuff. I can’t be bothered to learn because I hate android/google anyway. An old laptop running Linux with Kodi and a web browser is working fine as a TV streaming box since all I do is free streaming. I’ll replace it with a single board computer like the Raspberry Pi at some point.

That’s a good deal on the seed starting stuff. :)

I’ve had good luck with those clear party drink cups. They come in all sizes. It’s easy to tell when they need watering too.
