CG100,
Bottom heat may be counter-productive!. You would do much better to maintain an ambient temperature at or near 20C.

I know Dr. Lindstrom was hybridizing Sinningia for cold hardiness in the South, I'm not sure if that was Z7 or Z8. I have some of his seedlings but they're houseplants for me. Do you grow anything like that? I've heard some of the Gesneriad species from Chile have been grown outdoors in PNW but I don't remember the details.I grow Sinningia sellowiana [sellovii], and 3 Ourisia hybrids where minimum temperature reaches 15F -9.4C. I understand that Secret Garden Growers in Canby, OR offers several other hardy Gesneriads.
