Description
Our 150 Watt Germination Mat allows you to maintain a constant soil temperature when germinating Seeds or propagating plants. The patented, double-layer construction is tough and waterproof, which makes it ideal for a wide range of growing situations. These work great in a greenhouse or indoor seed starting room.
This model can be daisy-chained with four mats connected at one time. The MASTER MAT must be used with our Hoss Germination Thermostat. Plug the MASTER MAT into the thermostat and add 3 of the ADD-ON MATS for a complete setup. These are perfect for a seed starting rack with 4 shelves, or a long, linear seed starting table.
This mat is 21" wide x 60" long. It is large enough to provide heat to two of our 162 or 338 Cell Seed Starting Trays. It is also large enough to hold 8 of our 24 Cell Seed Starting Trays or 16 of our 12 Cell Seed Starting Trays. This mat is essential when starting warm-season vegetable seedlings in the late winter months. It will drastically improve germination rates and germination time for peppers, tomatoes, eggplant, okra, melons, flowers, and more!
Once Seeds have germinated, you may remove the trays from the heat mat if you need to use the mat to germinate other trays. You can also leave the trays on the mat as the seedlings grow. This will help to accelerate the growth and allow you to have transplants ready sooner than later.
