ROOTiT Small Heat Mat

ROOTiT Small Heat Mat

R395.00

Warm roots, better strikes — even in the cold months. The ROOTiT Small Heat Mat raises your propagator temperature 10–15°C above ambient, so you can germinate and clone successfully through the colder times of year and sprout seeds that need higher temperatures to germinate.

  • Faster germination & cloning: gentle, even heat from a single mesh element in waterproof, fray-proof matting
  • Better control: the surface can exceed 50°C, so ideally pair it with a temperature controller and probe in the substrate
  • Correct placement: sits under a propagator or non-draining container — never inside one or under soil
  • Match the size: pair mat size to propagator size to avoid heat loss or uneven heating

25cm x 35cm, 11W, 1.8m cord with 2-pin plug. NOT waterproof — never submerge or get wet, don’t use if punctured or the element is exposed, and unplug during installation and handling.

Description

The ROOTiT Small Heat Mat will raise your propagator temperatures 10 to 15 °C above the ambient temperature. This will enable you to germinate and clone successfully during the colder times of the year and will also help you to sprout seeds that require higher temperatures to  germinate.

ROOTiT Heat Mats produce a gentle heat, generated by the single mesh element encased inside a waterproof, fray-proof matting. Place the mat under a propagator or similar non-draining container, not inside of them. The mats’ surface temperate may however exceed 50 °C when turned on and should ideally be used with a temperature controller. Inserting a temperature controller’s waterproof temperature probe into the substrate used inside the propagator will enable you to regulate your substrate temperature automatically. Always try to match up your propagator size to your heat mat size. If the pad is larger than the propagator there will be heat loss on the exposed mat areas. If the pad is smaller than the propagator, the substrate will not be heated uniformly and/or adequately.
