How does he control the heat from the mat? Will the heat not cook the cuttings?

The mats use thermostats. I set mine to 78-80 because my house is too cold otherwise. You can buy them as sets with the heat mats or separately.

@PapaFig has been rooting many, MANY cuttings and we thought it would be fun to try and guess how many from the pics he's posting.
Here's how it's going to work. So far we've seen these pics and some members have tried to guess how many are there....

So like guessing the number of jelly beans in a jar... Here is the game as described by @PapaFig
--
We are going to set some more this weekend. Let's see who can come closest to the number we have set on these mats by Monday morning (as confirmed by our count and photos we will post at that time).
Hints:
1) We have more cuttings than we can strike by then.
2) It's me (50 y.o.) and my son (12 y.o.) only working on them
3) As of now, there are only a few struck that are not shown/seen in these two photos (the two photos are of mostly the same cups just a different angle - and the current counts/guestimates are pretty close.
So it's however many there are on the mats now, PLUS what we can add (strike) by Monday morning!
And we will throw in 7 cuttings (your choice) from our collection next Fall/Winter when we take cuttings.
Deadline for guesses - 8AM PST Monday, March 10th, 2025.
GOOD LUCK and HAVE FUN!

The first person to guess the correct number wins.... The winner can choose any mug from the figfanatic.com merch storefront and send me their shipping info and I will send it to them.
This just came up in the last few minutes so if we're missing anything please let us know.
Have fun!

I have a Thermostats but nowhere to put it in the heat mat.

I just discovered that the heat mat can be plugged to the thermostats.

You can buy heat mats with them too.

I have to admit, for my own curiosity I tried counting the cups a few times and I'm not sure I got through it once without losing count... This is certainly not easy.
I can't wait to know the result and to know how close I was
I look forward to sharing how close my guess was... after the game is over
