I got a really late start planting my seeds (indoors)I was thinking of
putting my seeds (tomato, bell/hot pepper, basil) on a heating pad on the
low setting, to help speed germination. I am wondering if the low setting is
enough heat, I don't want to go higher and risk cooking the seeds! Is there
a way to monitor the temperature? What about those disposable stick on
thermometers?
Also, I have the tray covered with a plastic lid. The seeds are planted in
jiffy 7 peat pellets. I wonder if that is too humid an environment and will
cause rot or damping off when seedlings?
Thanks for help.

I cant promise it my method will do it as fast as yours, but I put them on
top of my freezer or refrigerator. They seem to come up pretty quick that
way for me.
