What temperature will kill mycelium?
    #19460845 - 01/23/14 03:08 AM (10 years, 11 months ago)

I have read that it is 106F held for 48 hours.  My thermostat on my heater in my closet where I am colonizing broke, and I just went into the closet and the temperature was 112F.  It started at 70 about 3 hours ago and then rose to 106 over that period, so im guessing it was above 100 for at least an hour.  Is my mycelium destroyed!?!?!? Or will it prevail as it was only for an hour or so. Definitely throwing away the heater

So is it as long as it reaches 106F, even for a short amount of time, it will kill all the mycelium? Or if it was for just a short period, can the mycelium recover?

Whatever part of the myc that reaches 106 it dies. That's it's thermal limit.

I just want to report that although my closet reached temperatures in excess of 110F for an hour or two, (around 112F to be precise), the mycelium appears to be undamaged, and is continuing to gradually colonize.  :grin:
