we have them in a tub with the pad underneath and a blanket in between. It's on low and set to go on an off all day for 30 minute cycles. Pretty much once it gets to 80-81 it cuts off and goes down to 75. So the incubator stays 75-81F, and it seems to be doing well.

Sucks about the loss man, Was it looking good. And then the mold hit? And could the higher temp have caused it?

Yea it was looking perfect before the mold.. And yea I'm thinking it was probably the heat. Down to 13 jars and 6 strains now.

I can't seem to get the jars to 75. I just might have to use the heat pad

Put a towel in the bottom of the tub. The jars are sitting on the towel. I put another towel in between the heating pad and the tub and it's been a steady 74.9 degrees

Ok so I just looked at all the jars again and noticed a few light blue spots on the bottom of two of the B+ jars, anyone know what this could be? A lot of the cakes are 100% so i'm thinking around this weekend I can birth most of them.

bruising is just a bluing to the mycelium pretty much same concept if someone punched you also can be caused by lots of other things but overall not harmfull

When the time comes are you gonna use the kit he way it comes, with new lights of course? Or are you gonna make it a shotgun chamber? Just curious because I purchased the same kit and I am about two weeks behind you

Ok so we noticed our first few pins in two of the bruised b+ jars and earlier today we got a little excited so we birthed those two after rinsing them off. Strained the two bags plus another extra bag of perlite before hand and lined the tub, connected humidifier, and added some blue spectrum led lights all around it for a 12/12 cycle. We then dunked 3 cakes for 6 hours and put them in also totaling 5 cakes in fruiting as of now. Letting 2 more go for about 12hrs at least in dunking. And theres still 5 in jars colonizing. Will upload pics hopefully within about 12 hours or so.

Alright i woke up this morning and noticed the temp in the fruiting chamber was 82F with a low of 73F so does temp play a big role in fruiting? We have these strips of blue LEDs inside the tub around it. each one has 3 LEDs on it and there was 17 but we cut off 3 bc of the temp so there are 14 bars with 3LEDs on each. Im not sure how many watts they are but i know theyre 12volts a bar. Any help or suggestions would be awesome, thanks! Ill have pics up later. And my humidity is staying 99
