Electricity Is Now Economically Used
In Early Spring Horticulture Planting
A flick of a switch is all that
is needed today to grow vege-
tables and bedding -out plants for
spring transplanting.
Electricity has taken over the
job of heating hotbeds, replac-
ing decomposing manure, which,
while used successfully for many
years, caused occasional failures
due to overheating and under -
heating.
Big Savings
Gardeners requiring large num-
bers of plants can realize sub-
stantial savings by growing the
plants themselves, says Horticul-
turalist W. E. Torfason of the
Lethbridge, Alta., Experimental
Farm.
The f e d e r al horticulturalist
points out that there are three
basic requirements for making an
electrically -heated hotbed: (1)
A suitable frame, complete with
glass or plastic sash; (2) Soil
heating cable; and (3) A temp-
erature regulating thermostat.
Heater Cable Needed
The frame can be of two-inch
planking and ordinary storm
sash or specially -constructed two -
layer plastic sash may be used.
Heating cable can be purchased
in length of 60 or 120 feet, with
the shorter length being used on
a 110 -volt power supply and the
longer length on a 220 -volt power
supply.
Each 60 -foot length of cable
will heat 36 square feet of frame

space. This is sufficient to start
1,000 to 1,200 plants. Multiple
arrangements of cables may be
used where more space is requir-
ed. A reliable water -proof therm-
ostat will maintain the hotbed
temperature at any desired level.
Flats Preferred
Plants may be grown in a bed
of soil covering the heating cable,
or in flats that can be set on
a framework above the cable. Use
of flats is preferred because of
the ease of handling and greater
heating efficiency, particularly
in cold weather.
Gardeners are warned to pur-
chase cable that is sheathed in
lead. -
