Heat question.

I was wondering about heating today... Just a random thought.

Do corn owners who live in warm climates (ie, florida) need to use heaters..
Since I would assume that if you lived in a warm area that your house would be averagely around 80 degrees or so..

I am new to this and curious if it would be different since in the wild they would not have heating pads.

Let me know guys! :)
 
I live in central Florida now, and south florida since i was 4. In the dead of the summer (summer for us lasts from march-december, followed by a few cold fronts spread through january and february) temperatures reach the mid 90s. for that very reason, i keep my a/c at 73, which makes room temperature at about 75. So absolutely yes, you still need a heating pad in florida.
 
Ah okay, makes sense with the AC.

Yeah it just crossed my minds and wondered if people used them in Florida since that`s where they would live in the wild.
 
I do not live in south Florida but I do live in South Texas and yes I do have heat cable on my rack. In the summer, I turn the T-stat down to 85' so the warm side is about 80' and during the winter I turn the T-stat to 95' so the top of my aspen is about 85'. I also have about a 10' differential from the on set point.
