Shotgun fruiting chamber temperature
    #14226577 - 04/02/11 03:08 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

So after plenty of research and lurking shroomery I finally started a PF-tek grow since I finally have the time and resources. Got a syringe from Ralphster and inoculated 12 jars last Saturday. As of now they seem to be colonizing well, no contams. Success!

While I wait for my cakes colonize I will need to make a fruiting chamber, the shotgun chamber seems like a  good bet for a first timer. My question is: The temp in my apt. fluctuates between 60f and 70f occasionally getting slightly below 60F on cold nights (hopefully warm weather is on the way!) . This doesn't seem to be ideal for fruiting, is there any way I could heat the chamber? say with an aquarium heater in a small water tub?

Advice would be much appreciated.

you can get a space heater if you really want, but it's not necessary at all. like bio said, 65 works great. just know that everything will take longer to complete. don't let your impatience get out of hand :wink:
