 Temp. question/colonization stage

Hey everyone!
So I've looked around and still have a few questions regarding the temperature issue. I innoc. my brf jars yesterday and put them in a dark closet awaiting colonization. Nevertheless, i don't own a heater right now and am in a tight budget atm. I have been keeping my room temperature between 76-80 F hoping this will be enough. Since I live in a very warm area (FL) room temperatures are easily kept warm so I figured the heater issue wouldn't be that big of a deal. I obviously plan on dropping temps once cakes are colonized..Guess what i'm trying to figure out is if I should go scrape off some cash and run to get a heater or if you all think my cakes will be O.K. as they are.
Peace!

PS: Thanks for the redirection to the search engine..if it werent for that I think i would've never found it.
skip the sarcasm next time .i made it pretty clear i did search for the topic and was only looking for a quick response to my question from someone with experience..not a condescending reply.

I've been saying that for years. My petri dish studies a few years ago showed that cubensis reaches peak linear growth between 75F and 80F, then is flat until 83F, where it starts to slow down. Mycelium at 86F is growing at about 2/3 the speed of mycelium at 80F. In addition, the higher temps tend to stimulate thermophic molds and bacteria.
There's LOT'S of good information in TMC, but that 86F figure is one of the errors.

I remember a post years ago of some dude that lived in a trailer down there and posted a pic of a shit load of these giant brf cakes that he baked in an oven(not a recommended tek), he had them all over the place in a room sitting on newspapers, said they helped regulate humidity I think, anyway, your a lucky bastard.
You could probably put anything outside and it would fruit or just leave your windows open. I would like to see how a rye verm combo would fruit outside down there, I know a millet or wbs and verm combo would. You could always grow on shit, but who wants to eat something grown on shit if it is not necessary?
