Good evening,

I want to grow chillies from seed this year and the advice that I've got
back is to make sure that they get a good start by heating the soil to 70
degrees, using a heated propagator.

No idea on what make or model to buy - can anyone recommend a manufacturer?
I only want to grow a dozen or so plants so I assume a cheap and cheerful,
small propagator will be sufficient.

Any help gratefully received.

Cheers,

Andrew
I made my own in the corner of the greenhouse on my allotment by boxing a corner
of the greenhouse with wood spars and bubble film and under the bench
a twin burner parafin stove on the bench water proof trays with
capillary mating 1/4 seed trays a soil themometer and a fleece curtain
down th front. I am steady at 65f and tomato seedlings are now ready
to pot on, Kelsea onions were poted on last week.
