fruit temp and trash bag?

long story short, will booms successfully fruit in incubating temperatures? roughly 85 degrees.
also, using trash bag liners in aluminum trays stops side pinning how?

Incubation temps should be more around 70-75. they fruit well at those temps too, no need to incubate room temp is fine

Like Shea25 said,room temperature (70-75 degrees fahrenheit) is all you need to incubate in.People fail to realize that as the jars colonize they put off their own heat,therefore the internal temperature of the jars is higher then the ambient temperature.

It will stick to the substrate and when the substrate shrinks it will pull the trash liner with it,therefore keeping light from hitting the sides of the substrate which would otherwise cause side pinning.

Nothing wrong with side pins either though.
When you harvest the cake or tray simply harvest all the sides at once.
Bottom pins are often my biggest fruits.

i was under the impression that fruiting temps needed to be dropped 10 degrees. Im doing casings.

Nope not all all, colonize and fruit at the same temps, room temp

Technically you didn't mention what species you're growing, but it's a safe bet to assume you're growing cubes which are a tropical species and require no temperature drop. Some cold weather species do though.

i have been doing further research and continue to see a degree drop needed for fruits not at room temp. I can not get my grow room below about 80. Colonization ripped at these temps, with the first jar completing on day 9 using spore syringe. All jars are complete now in 14 days. Just waiting for poo which shall be here sat or following mon. Im doing monotub this round. So full fruits should flourish on 80+ temps as long as fae and light is applied? I hand fanned a couple casings last time with minimal results. Im just hoping it was due to inadequete fae and not high temps. At a a 4 1/2 inch complete sub the humidity should have been acceptable and light was fine.

Temperature drop is not required, nor beneficial for cubensis. In fact, there's growing evidence that a temperature rise might benefit. RR

that is fantastic news. Now im sure fae was my problem. I started fruiting conditions as soon as myc poked through my 1/2 inch 50/50 casing. However my fae technique only consisted of hand fanning a couple times a day for about 2 minutes. No holes! I had two aluminum casings pretty much perfectly covering the bottom of my tub. Insufficent fae im sure, leading to an eigth.
this monotub i have 4 1/2 pints of rye and (up to) 10 pounds poo. Id like to purchase a tub, which will give me about a 5 inch substrate. 4 inches of grain poo mix and 1 inch casing 50/50+. Any idea roughly what size i should look in to. I was thinkin between 10-19?
