 Urgent cultivation question

O.k. guys, I have a really urgent question. I have a 90 quart terrarium, air pumps, the whole setup. I'm doing a PF style grow with the cakes. I live in Florida, so the weather is always great for shroom growing, 70+ at all times. But I may have to take my setup outdoors do to lack of room. I'll still have access to all the electric I need, so will taking my setup outdoors adversely affect my grow, even though the conditions are still ideal?
Thanks guys, I appreciate any and all help.

It oughta be fine. Contaminants are everywhere, not just outdoors. Just take the necessary precautions

you might as well just set up a shade cloth and do an outdoor grow. save you on electricity and supplies.

well if you wanted to keep it indoors just get a smaller terrarium,
ppl have over complected the process of shroom growing cubes are one of if not the easiest mushrooms to grow, (and if you think there hard to cultivate then try doing some morel  )
all you need to grow is a very humid environment and plenty of fresh are exchange, terrariums can be made of just about anything you want, such as a box lined with a trashbag ect. ect.
so if space is that big of an issue then just get a box of good size, some doudlesided tape, and a trashbag, and there you have a terrarium of any size you want for next to nothing, hope this helped
peace out DM

With outdoors your terrarium would be subject to the weather(if your not there to bring it in, like rain sun) also bugs and possibly small animals may find intrest in your terrarium so bugs will be a problem..... try it though and let us know how it goes

I picked up some composted cow manure, peat moss, and organic potting mix. I decided just to do an outdoor grow. I'll post pics on how it goes. The only thing that really has me worried is the tropical storms, and hurricaines. To keep out the bugs, I'll just use a mesh net, that will keep most of the insects out, and still allow a lot of fae and light. Anyway, I'll post pics on how it goes.
