Default big cheap seed propagator

I built a new larger seed propagator to replace my old smaller one

1 used pepsi cooler with bad compressor 75.00
2 150 watt ceramic heating elements ebay 14.95
1 digital thermostat ebay 11.95
1 large led grow light Christmas present from my son 0.00
1 ac timer wall mart 6.95

total 108.85

this works well with all seeds and maintains 87 . f and nearly 100 % humidity
seeds sprout incredibility fast and the small buds on banana corms when cut out with a little tissue on them then placd in a small pot will start growing leaves in less than a week

the thermostat controls the temp with in 2 degree and a pan of water on top the heaters maintain the humidity
the timer keeps the grow light on for 16 hrs out of 24
