For mini mono tub what is the best heating source?
    #22001710 - 07/26/15 08:27 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

I'm trying to improve the temperature on my mini mono tub, what is the best solution? heater pads or aquarium heaters (they look like a cylinder / tube). Or is there anything more automated? like some sort of heating/humidifier system controlled by arduino? the more automated the better. I'm willing to spend up to $50 , it needs to be COMPACT :smile: , because I don't have much space in my closed

What is the room temperature? You shouldn't need any heat as long as it is somewhere close to 70. If you are comfortable your mushrooms are too.

I don't know yet (I haven't received the temp sensor from amazon yet). It feels like 20 celcius (comfortable for me without a t-shirt), which I believe is 68 Fahrenheit. It is taking so long to colonize my grain spawn mini mono tub :/ . It has been 7 days and I can only see 3 small white spots on the surface. Can't giving more heat accelerate colonization?

Thanks!

contams love warmer temps more than the myc does, IMO heat would cause more problems than good. Room temp:thumbup:

thanks for the tip!
why some spawns colonize faster than others? due to specific lighting? umitidy, soil nutrients ? (I haven't used gypsum).

If you followed a trusted tek you will be fine. This hobby takes a lot of patience sometimes.
