Hi, Lowell -- I just use $10 heating pads from the drugstore -- you know, the kind that you use for your back after working in the garden all day. The kind at my local drugstore has three settings -- low, medium, and high. I suppose you could go through an exercise with a seed tray full of soil and an instant read thermometer to determine the optimum setting, but I always found that the medium setting worked for me -- no germination problems at all.
