| Congratulations! I love the Roses! |
|
| I have a little heater in there that keeps the temp above 40*. Yes I remove the top of the jug! so now they can get more sun and not get to leggy. |

| hmmmm... is it a special greenhouse heater or a normal everyday space heater? |
|
| Just a little space heater from wally world. Only turn it on at night. Benn doing it this way for several years now. Got an old quilt over the top to help keep the heat in. So far so good. |
|
| So Aqua- you had the containers outside, until germination - then you put them in the greenhouse? |
|
| Yup! As soon as I see green, in they go. |
