I can understand that in cooking the soil. Sure I did not have that trouble during the cooking was worried I would not be able to keep it 70. I am sold on the warm water helping right now for sure. I can for sure drop the temp to 80 if needed.
I wonder if giving them a good meal every now and then would help them to thrive and reproduce?
Yeah i would see what Doc says for the water temps. I am really unsure what a safe upper temp would be. I would like to have my water be warmer than it is but would need to figure out a way to make it happen. I dont think you will cause the soil to go anaerobic by watering with such warm water but I would worry about shocking the roots or cooking them that way. Again just a worry that has no foundation in anything other than a thought in my mind.
I am not sure about if the molasses once in a while will help or be detrimental, that again is for someone smarter than me to weigh in on, I just wanted to pass on what i had read and how I interpreted it
