So long as it has a thermostat I think your good. You can verify how accurate it is by placing a small Tupperware container with water on top and using an old school mercury thermometer to verify. I would say 70-73f would be where I would target.

Awesome, thank you Aqua Man!

I used clonex and this took 14 days...I figure keeping them at temp (70°) would shave off a few days....

Looking good. Only suggestion is not to spray them with water or anything since clones don't usually get good airflow they are much more susceptible to PM or other pathogens.

Never? I mist em or the done if it seems to dry...

With correct temps and humidity, you can get them rooted within 7 days.. without clonex :)

The best way imo is 70-80% humidity. It eases the demand on the root system

the hydrofarm ones work great. Skip the thermostat. No real need. I leave mine plugged in 24/7 until the middle of summer.
