Iam a first time grower and couldnt think of a better place to get my Questions anwsered then on Shroomery.com
I'll start by telling how i plan on growing, and would like all the feeback i can get !!!! As i do not want this grow to be a bust.
I have a kit that grows mycileum and is about 3 feet by 1.5 feet wide (ish) and has a CLear plastic dome lid (and is about 2.5 feet tall with the lid on) I plan on growing with this kit inside of an old Deep freeze, and will Heat the kit with a Space heater. I know TEMP and HUM are very important, so I plan to moniter those everyday. I know the higher the HUM the better, so iam going to try and keep it above 90% (Is this Right ???) and as for the temp, what should I keep it at ?? 82 ??? or whats room temp ? and how much hotter does it have to be then room temp. Please let me know what you think of my plan, and how I can better it, and Please tell me IDEAL !!! TEMP AND HUM
Thank you !!

in using an old deepfreez you will want to be sure of proper initial sterilization and cleaning. you will also run into problems unless you take measures for air circulation. a space heater may be eccessive for heating purposes so you will want to get your heating proceedures callibrated in asdvance. humidity (represented as RH, for relative humidity) is important, but "the higher the HUM the better" is not nesecarily accurate.
Stamets recomends RH: 90% Temp: 84-86f. for spawn run/casing run, RH: 95-100% Temp: 74-78f. for pinning and RH: 85-92% Temp: 74-78f. for cropping as the ideal.
introduction and circulation of fresh air will be an important factor when it comes tiame to fruit as you will have to lower the CO2 content of the air (below 5000 pm) to assure ideal pinning, though it will sometimes supprise you how hard cubensis will try to fruit in even neglectfull conditions.
god luck on your first grow.

Actually, it's both.

86 F for germination and substrate growth
72-75 F for fruiting.
Make sure that you can get these temps correctly before starting. If not then you will have not a lot of luck.
