I'd suggest using a floodlight....throws some heat and you could set it up to a thermostat with a relay to achieve desired temperature.

I like trips suggestion...for your problem.
My green house tent is in my furnace room...so I don't have your problem. I get a constant 73 to 76 degrees F...which is perfect for fruiting.
If I had to warm up an area...I'd probably use an electric oil base heater like trip posted. Once I ran out of fuel oil for my furnace in the winter...and had to resort to using one for 12 hours.

what temperature is your martha at right now? 68-74 is optimum, not below 68 not above 74.

well, infact i have never understood why nobody wants warm mist (=steam) humidifiers and prefer to spend more for an ultrasonic: if you get a warm mist you have both warming and humidification at once at a lower price, if you go ultrasonic you spend more, and moreover you need another tool for keeping warm the chamber...

go buy a warm mist and tell us why it doesn't work. the humidifier is only going to be on for 15 minutes every 4 hours and the temperature that comes out is really hot. On top of that, the huge difference in temperature between the inside and outside of martha will cause such a mess with condensation. G'day Derx
