Great information! I used a dremel to put holes in plastic deli containers using some of the same techniques. Now, I know how to drill into glass.

I've been reading up on S/H culture and have the supplies, but I still have a question (and probably more).

Am I right in thinking that pot size isn't as critical as with a "normal" medium? ...

I think you'll be fine. I lower my heat to 64* at night and none of my plants have a problem. Just let the house warm up and hopefully that one will perk up.
