I'll try to use that rope light in my propagation chamber to provide some bottom heat for my tomatoes next year.<br />I'm gonna construct (2) 4x4 dome hoop covers this fall, and plan on using them as miniature greenhouses for the cuttings, and also to help harden off my tomato plants.

I have plans to do forsythia, figs, and some other things I have laying around.Tom - 7th Street Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03416233066465228351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2620060925762450118.post-27901725521086416972009-08-17T00:06:21.238-04:002009-08-17T00:06:21.238-04:00Dude...you've created some beautiful scenery! ...Dude...you've created some beautiful scenery! I looked up that book "The Propagator's Bible" the other day, and will try to get one for a christmas present or something. Oh! I also bought one of the rope lights like you use in your cloner, too - and will use it for hardwood cuttings this Jan/Feb. I'm really getting geared up for this propagating thing, and will need a few pointers from you later, if ya don't mind.Jeff Vandiverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07200011426236637927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2620060925762450118.post-25341541335289048692009-08-16T20:58:34.809-04:002009-08-16T20:58:34.809-04:00Thanks ya'll.

That's one reason I'm planning to spend my next rainy day off rereading what I've written over the past 8 months. And I did not know that about sunflowers. I'll have to keep that in mind too.Tom - 7th Street Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03416233066465228351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2620060925762450118.post-87742333588666759652009-08-16T20:33:09.437-04:002009-08-16T20:33:09.437-04:00WOW, TOM!
