Standard Features
Polycarbonate Doors
Shatter proof doors to last the rigors of the farm. Ultra clear and full length so you can keep an eye on your most important product. Also some seeds need light to germinate. Double doors on both sides of the cabinet.
Magnetic Closure
No pesky clasps or latches to deal with. Doors open and close easily and are held in place by rare earth magnets.
Adjustable Top Vent
The screened top vent can be adjusted to increase or reduce the amount of moisture in the chamber. Screen is stainless steel.
Full Length Stainless Hinge
Extends from top of the chamber to the bottom. These doors get opened and closed many times a day all season long. They are built with that in mind.
Expanded Shelves
The stainless steel expanded shelves will not droop or rust. The open design allows for even steam throughout the chamber. Shelves are easily removed for taller plants like Tomato Graft healing.
Stainless Reservoir
Large water tank will allow multiple days of steam without the autofill engaged. Great for farms with limited water. Fitted with low water level shutoff to protect heating element.
Large Castors
Fitted standard with large 8" rubber locking castors. One can easily move the unit when needed.

Chamber Tips
Advice on Best Practices
1
Dibble and Seed
Dibble all trays before seeding. Either use your finger or a dibble board. This will center your seeds in the cell and provide a good environment for germination.

2
No Covering Seeds
Leave seeds uncovered so you can easily monitor germination. Covering seeds is unnecessary in the chamber.
3
Soak Tray
Thoroughly water the tray before putting into the chamber. Tray will not need watering again until it is removed.
4
Set Temperature
A good average ideal temperature for Vegetable and Flower seeds is 75 to 78 degrees.
5
Take Out
Remove tray when 50% or more seeds are visibly germinated. This is to prevent legginess if left in the chamber too long. Check your chamber daily.
Problems with Heat Mats
Heating mats or heated tables dry out the soil which will kill the seed unless you constantly water. This is not only extra work, but watering will cool down the seed and delay and reduce the germination rate.
Great Option
Shade Curtains
To maintain moisture in the chamber and steady temperatures, direct sunlight into the chamber should be avoided. The sun will heat up the chamber. Curtains help to eliminate that issue. They are also great for some flower seeds that require darkness to germinate.
3/8" stainless steel rod and aluminum clips. The cloth is 55% shading which can be bunched for greater blocking. Easy open and close.
Cool Crops
Spinach and Lettuce
These cool temperature crops germinate well at 75 degrees F which is the recommended set temperature in the chamber for all vegetables and flowers.
Problems with germination rates occur with these crops when the temperature is allowed to exceed 75.
We recommend the optional fans and shade cloth to maintain a consistent temperature in late spring and summer.
Thermostat
Best in Class
Standard feature is the RANCO Two Stage Digital Thermostat in a Nema 4 enclosure. This will give you a lifetime of precise temperature control with an adjustable differential of as little as 1 degree F.
Thermostat Operating Range: -20°F to 140°F
For best temperature control the cooling options of curtains and automatic fans are recommended.
Normal Operating Temperatures for the chamber can range from your shaded room temperature up to over 95 degrees.
An ideal setting for germinating most Vegetable and Flower seeds is 75 to 78 F.
Option
Automatic Fans
Fans pull in cooler air to help the temperature not rise on warmer days. This enables you to keep steam being produced and continue to achieve great germination with cool season crops
Fans are tied into the thermostat and will come on automatically.
