The influence of surface small scale magnetic field on the heating of PSR J0250+5854 polar cap is considered. It is assumed that polar cap is heated only by reverse positrons, accelerated in pulsar diode. It is supposed that pulsar diode is in stationary state with lower plate nearby the star surface (polar cap model), occupies all pulsar tube crosssection and operates in regime of steady space charge limited electron flow. The influence of small scale magnetic field on electric field inside pulsar diode is taken into account. To calculate the electron-positron pairs production rate we take into account only the curvature radiation of primary electrons and its absorption in magnetic field. It is assumed that part of electro-positron pairs may be created in bound state (positronium). And later such positroniums are photoionized by thermal photons from star surface.
