Slow colonization blues
    #4788531 - 10/11/05 06:36 PM (19 years, 3 months ago)

Its been about 2 weeks since i knocked my jars up and about half of them are showing growth about the size of a dime or smaller. I'm trying to raise the ambient temp, but i cant afford a tank heater this week (I bought car this week). I have a heating pad that i've been attempting to use (wrapped in several old t-shirts so its not superheating the jars) but it has a 2 hour timer so it is extremely difficult to maintain. Does anyone have any other ideas? They are sitting at an average of about 73 degrees right now.

Put them in a box on top of your fridge or TV. The box blocks out the light and the appliance generates a good amount of heat. :thumbup:

LOL True there would be plenty of room in there, its a Town Car...

I stuck the thermometer in the little cabinet thing above my fridge and its about 79 degrees. Not quite optimum but I'll bet it does better than 73.

I found that if i keep my jars on top of my water heater they are a perfect 85.
