in many trades room temp is an actual temp. 20C/68F.
I would consider incubating if my room was colder than 60F/15C, but
I'd rather consider heating the room it self as I wouldn't be comfortable in less than 60F :shrug:

Just leave your jars at room temperature. Cubensis wants to colonize and fruit, don't ever forget that, they will do it whether you want them to or not provided they've been given a good and sterile environment to thrive in.

Whether it's 65 degrees or 79 degrees they'll still colonize, albeit slower or faster. Just wait it out. I used an incubator my first grow, now I just leave them on a shelf.

You know what we mean hamloaf, why do you have to be like that? Noobs don't see incubating as putting a little space heater in the room to keep it at 75 degrees, they see it has putting heating pads and fish tank heaters in shit. You don't have to treat us like we're dumb for telling the OP not to do what he is doing. Did you give him any advice? :rolleyes:

I hate it when people argue technicalities when we all understand what was being said.



Only 1 person actually specified a lower temperature limit here, saying if your temps are not "around 70" then consider a TiT



We specified temperatures. 65-79 is great colonization temps.

My house was just 65-68 all through out and I didn't use an incubator :shrug:

I saw other temps were mentioned. I specifically said a lower limit, meaning a temp at which point people would recommend using an incubator or some additional heat source.

So are you saying if someones room is 64.5F you would advise using an incubator or providing additional heat? This was not 100% clear to me.

At times my grow area has been an average of 15C/59F, so I use an incubator to bring it to about 25C/77F

Sorry blackout, I usually tell people 65f is the minimum you want to go without needing additional heat. I know lower than that will still work, but that's the min. for optimal results IMO.

You're right,

It's completely, like most things in this hobby, situational. I'm lucky enough that my house doesn't drop below 65f most of the winter but it can get to right about there. If it was lower I'd be using a heater to heat myself up, which would in turn be incubating my jars.

If my temps were 59 degrees not only would I be freezing but I'd have a heater to bump it up to 70f+ as well.

I would only not advise an incubator to someone in my situation, where it's not THAT cold. It's just an unnecessary expense.

Now if you're trying to grow in 55f, then incubate your jars if you want, just make sure it's controlled. Some people just leave a heater running and the temps get to some ridiculous number and favor contams. I know, I've been there and done it.
