Day 12 for seedling #2 as well. Air temperature inside the chamber has been a constant 72 degrees. Soil temperature in the peat pots is at 70 degrees.
Looks like a real giant pumpkin plant too! I keep kicking myself for not starting out this way last year. The first true leaf was just barely starting to show when I stuck last years into the ground in mid-May, thrown to the elements without much hardening off at all.
If this was mid April, these plants would be getting some sunshine and fresh air for a couple hours a day. The germination box is for sure doing what it's supposed to do and I think after I'm done with this last round I'll be ready. Can't afford to play around like last year. Spending all winter reading and studying about these things has been worth it.
