    Heating Mats: Yay or Nay

    Heating mats. Are they a gimmick or do they help in the process of germination with seedlings? I was also wondering if there is a risk of scorching the seedlings or do they maintain a consistent/beneficial temperature. I have seen some with tempt gauges and they are all relatively the same...
