Seed propagators kits
Mini seed propagation kits are very useful tools for creating the right environment for seed germination and plant cuttings to root. In fact, the latter are perhaps the most delicate phases for the growth of a plant and, consequently, it is good to use the right tools.
Mini greenhouses are used to facilitate and ensure a better germination , because they keep the temperature and humidity constant, creating an ideal microclimate for plant development.
In fact, too low temperature and too high humidity, or vice versa, it could endanger the health of the seeds of the plant itself and prevent their germination.
The mini greenhouse is very popular in both indoor growing and hydroponic growing.
How an indoor propagation systems is made
In general, an indoor propagation system is made up of:
- A plastic container, of various sizes, on the bottom of which the pots or soil are placed;
- A transparent lid able to filter the light, so as to maintain constant humidity and temperature inside the mini greenhouse;
- Small windows (of variable number according to the type of mini greenhouse chosen) which allow the exchange and circulation of air, in order to prevent the small plants from getting moldy;
- An internal resistance (in the case of mini heated greenhouses) useful for heating the environment even better;
- A thermostat (present in some mini heated greenhouses) useful for regulating the internal temperature.
Types of hydroponic propagation kit
There are different types of hydroponic propagation kit on the market and in general a distinction can be made between mini greenhouses:
- Rigid, of various sizes and with ventilated and heated variants;
- Soft, of various sizes but almost never ventilated or heated.
Among the various types on the market, heated mini greenhouses are the most widespread and used, because they guarantee greater control in growing. These are differentiated according to the structure (all in plastic or aluminum and nylon) and the dimensions.
The heated mini greenhouses , thanks to the fact that they maintain a constant temperature between 18 and 23°C, guarantee the ideal conditions for the germination and rooting of plants.
The germination of the seeds, takes place thanks to the electric heating coil, which will be connected to a socket in order to perform its functions. This coil is then included in a small system known as a heating mat.
Mini heated greenhouses: why use them?
In addition to strengthening the roots of the plant and maintaining constant temperature and humidity values, there are many advantages that can be obtained from the use of heated mini greenhouses, for example:
- Silence: it makes no noise during operation because it has no moving parts but only a metal coil which overheats when electricity passes through it;
- Reduced consumption: especially in mini greenhouses heated with a thermostat , useful for turning off the mini greenhouse when it has reached the ideal temperature based on the external climate;
- The price: ranging from 30 euros for the smallest models up to 200 euros for the larger ones.
