Ghetto Greenhouse Fail

So uhhhh.....rollin up on the Ghetto Greenhouse and seeing that the low temp reading on the thermometer (the one that sits RIIIIGHT on top of the seed flats) for the last 24 hours is a balmy 17 degrees means three things.  1. Current design is an EPIC FAIL. 2. One half of our early seedlings just got wiped (meaning I still have trays that had just been seeded and thus were non-light dependent in a heated garage) 3. I'm going to be able to select some pepper and tomato seedlings that could be grown in the Arctic as not ALL of the seedlings in the trays that underwent 17 degree F temps shriveled up and died.

Good times.  There's some kinna feel good quote out there that says something like lack of 'frequent and epic failures' indicate too much time spent on the sidelines with your "Lil' Sally Lad Pants" on.
