Title: SINGLE INCUBATION
Post by: durazno on April 14, 2009, 07:44:46 AM
HEY THERE, was the best way (less space consuming) to incubate one single jar at optimum temp?

...also, when incubating many jars what do you guys think of heating pads, like the ones used in lizard aquariums?

I've heard of people using seed starting heating pad's but those are pretty inefficient IMO. What size jar?

Hey PW, I'm aware of the aquarium heater method. I was just wondering about the best way to incubate one single jar in a small area.

Thanks for ur help

I guess just get a pack of heating pads and stick one underneath something that holds enough water so 3/4 of the jar is submerged. I've never incubated one single jar, you should make more jars?

Check out what I just put in the PF TEK - the thread named substrate colonization ..that's how I do incubation .. and stays at a constant 80 degrees .. its small and don't take up any room at all ... you can for sure do just ONE jar if thats what you want.

thanks for the concern   ^_^
