LOW WATT PROPAGATION MATS
The economical way to germinate seeds and propagate cuttings.
1. Energy Efficient
This Low Watt Propagation Mat uses 20 watts of electric power per square foot of area
covered. This means you can cover a larger propagating area with less power required than
with electric cables or old higher wattage mats. The Low Watt Propagation Mat uses less
than 5 kilowatt hours per day if it runs continuously.2. Uniform Heat
Distribution
There is absolute uniformity of heat across the mat, because it is a continuous sheet
heater, not coiled wires imbedded in a mat.
3. Simple Set Up
The Low Watt Propagation Mat is designed to raise the temperature of the growing media by
as much as 20° F. Place the mat on top of a wooden table or other insulating board
material. Place the sensing bulb of your thermostatic control about
3/4" below the surface of your seed in the growing media. Cover your propagation
setup with Fly-Barr insect barrier to hold in the heat and moisture for
better germination. If germinating in the greenhouse, it is best to shade the area so the
sun won’t cause excessively high temperatures under this cover. Locate the
mat in an area that is within 15o of your target temperature for best results.
4. Easily Moved
Your Low Watt Propagation Mat is lightweight and can easily be moved from one propagating
area to another or the larger mats can be rolled up and stored away. Has a 90 day
manufacturers warranty.

(Thermostatic Control not included)
(We Strongly Urge You To Get A Thermostatic Controller. The Mat Could
Burn Up Without One.)
AUTOMATIC THERMOSTATIC CONTROLS
| ** Attempting to germinate seed at low or high
temperatures can seriously affect the germination percentage and the length of time
necessary to produce a good quality seedling. No one can afford this
high loss in germination, not just the cost of seed, but the loss of time, energy, labor,
space and maybe even a customers. ** 1. Place the temperature sensing
bulb in the media, approximately 3/4" below the seeds.
2. Set the thermostat dial to the temperature you wish to maintain.
3. Place the thermostat out of the way of mist systems and puddles of water.
4. Plug in up to 4 propagation mats to the thermostatic control.
5. Plug the thermostatic control into a 120 volt AC outlet making sure the
cord does not rest in a puddle of water.
6. Indicator light will glow when the mats are calling for heat.
7. Comes with a 90 day manufacturers warranty.
8. 5E 161 will control 4 mats. 5E162 controls 1 mat. A

PROPAGATION FLATS
7W031 and 7W032 (F1020) flats measure 20.56" x 10.19" x 2.31" inside. These
flats will hold 52 of the 2" net pots for germination, or one flat of Horticubes.
Always water seedlings from the top to reduce the wicking that takes place during
evaporation. |

NET POTS
& SLIT POTS
 |
The sides and base are slit to allow root development to take
place in all directions. They are used to start seedlings which will then be transplanted
to the growing system. Transplant shock is greatly reduced as the young plant and net pot
are transferred to the growing system as a unit. The plant is NOT removed
from the net pot. |

OASIS HORTICUBES
| This low density foam block is formulated for seed
germination with crops such as lettuce, tomatoes and spinach. The blocks should be
separated within a day or two of seed germination to keep the roots separated. Prior to or
immediately after sowing seed in the HORTICUBES, the product should be given a heavy
watering. Following this initial watering, normal watering procedures are
recommended. DO NOT sow seed in a dry sheet of foam and then store the material
prior to placement in the germination environment as damage to the seed may occur.
Hydro-Gardens' recommends filling the hole with vermiculite, and covering
the slabs with Fly-Barr insect barrier for moisture retention. Since the
medium contains no nutrients, it is necessary to begin a regular fertilization program as
soon as the cotyledon leaves develop. |
