Heat Pad Small Nu-Klear
This heat pad is ideal for placing under a propagation bin to increase bottom heat for cloning/seed raising. Puts out a low-grade heat but it can get too hot.
Comes with a free digital thermometer ($12 value),so you can monitor the internal heat of your propagator. We have found that if you don't use a thermometer then there is a high chance of crop failure.
The temperature should be 19c - 24c for tomatoes, tobacco and most other plants but if you are raising hot chilli seeds then they like 30 c. If too hot, place a spacer between the pad and your tray, to obtain the desired temperature.Don't cover the heat pad entirely as the heat must be allowed to diffuse.
A thermostat Controller can used for peace of mind and ease of use.
NOTE: Heat Pad should not be used in the following ways:
- Do not crease or fold
- Do not rip or split
- Should not be completely covered with insulation or padding
- Do not submerge in water
It is recommended the Heat Pad be used in conjuction with a Residual Current Device (RCD)
