Nice ingenuity though!!

You bring up a good point. In the end, I *think* I want to build a bench that contains either sand or pea gravel, with the heat cable about 1/4 inch deep. Something like that.
An update to the temp. Currently outdoors 38, the bench is holding at 62. I brought in as many flats as I could. The rest are covered with the frost cover. I have a propane heat source in their as well, set on medium. Im not sure what the temp in the GH is itself. Only have the one remote, and its on the heated bench.
