Yeah Adrian a heat mat would work a treat, I have a young boy in the house who wont leave things alone and we do have 'strict rules' about what happens inside and what happens outside, so growing plants inside the house would just cause him to demand why he cant bring his bunny inside to play

. I have a polyhouse outside anyway, and Ill happily wait until spring before I start seriously to grow my babies, I have plenty to be going on with before then. A 5 meter by 5 meter vegetable patch to dig the roofing tile edgers out of and then replace with sleepers in a raised garden format (whoever would use roofing tiles as a garden edger, and then bury them at least a foot deep not allowing for any raised garden). A fifteen meter by two meter long fruit tree garden to dig over and sleeper edge, again in raised garden format for the two dozen or so bare rooted fruit trees of many varieties and multi grafts that are turning up at the end of June. Several air layered Book leaf cypresses to do and then pot out for future bonsai, and the Bay, so I would say my next 3 odd months are very nicely filled up...oh yes and there is all the Jewellery to make
