Fabric pot + regular heated blanket

Is this a boom boom call or is it safe? I've been seeing some phosphorus def on my plant due to very low soil temps. I had a regular 50w heated blanket so I decided to cover sides of the fabric pot with it. It doesn't touch to the run off area, would it be an issue? Are these blankets waterproof? I tought they should be. What if someone pees on their bed? They would die, no?

Need a quick heads up before going sleep. Don't wanna wake up to fire seasoned with weed smoke.

A few electric blankets are waterproof but most are not. You need to review the documentation the blanket originally came with.

I think what you want are seedling mats.

We didn't boom boys, nice. Was a little scared. I guess it just doesn't get wet, for now. Will risk my life for few more weeks to see if it helps.

This is how it looks, folded the blanket in 3 and basically hung it to pot with the things. Almost covers the whole pot just 4 fingers off from touching end to end. It doesn't touch to bottom of the pot which is wet part. I know it's risky but seems okay so far.
