Smurfy, maybe you could get Reb to start them for you. He has lots of time. Peppers need heat, and water of course.

So your saying my unheated garage won't cut it?? so what kinda ND of heat we talking here. It's in a 70 degree room with a bulb over it. My heating pad went to hell on me so.....

Maybe I need a couple grease zerks!

Glenn, Like I told you before, I start my seeds on the top of the boiler in my shop. I just stuck a digital thermometer in a little starting pot on there to find out just what the temp is and the reading was 84 degrees. Some spots on there are a little cooler and some a little warmer I suppose. I hope this helps.

Of course its not worth it if you think your time is worth anything. I enjoy it though. I suppose none of gardening is really worth it but its kinda fun to grow your own stuff..... as long as you don't get too carried away. I have a tendency to go a bit overboard and make it too much work for the warden and I.
