High Elevation/Cold Weather-RV Mushrooms

Hello, I'm gonna give mushroom cultivation a crack again. I live in a high elevation area that is pretty much cold every night and with winter creeping up soon, it's gonna be cold as shit, and i live in an RV by myself. I have about 2ftx2½ftx3ft in space so it wont be anything extrodinary, I was considering buying a warm mist humidifier, but i don't know if that would help anything.
I'm gonna start out with a 2 pound bag of Pre-Sterilized Rye Berry Substrate
https://www.amazon.com/Sterilized-Berries-Mushroom-Substrate-Injector/dp/B008K4FE18/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1477523531&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=2+5+pound+mushroom+substrate
And once it is fully inoculated, Im gonna transfer it into a 10 pound bag of pre-sterilized horse shit sub
https://www.amazon.com/Pounds-Sterilized-Compost-Mushroom-Substrate/dp/B016IENOLI/ref=sr_1_1?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1477523724&sr=1-1&keywords=10+lbs+Sterilized+mushroom+substrate
I am planning on putting the sub into a tub with a garbage bag liner to prevent side pins
My main concern is the humidifier, will it be necessary? Will it benefit anything? It's coming to the time of the year up here where it gets to -32 at night, I have to small heaters running in my RV but I am gone at work during the day so i turn them off to save electricity but humidifiers use much less energy as I had an incident where i burnt out the chord my RV was hooked up to.
[gradient:#A8F728,#]I'd like some feedback, will this system fail me? or is it rock solid(I doubt it)? But please, Let me know what you think[/gradient]
ps: Last I tried cultivating Mushrooms, I fully inoculated 6 jars and my house got fully flooded out after I moved them into Bulk sub

I had typed up a massive wall of text explaining why all of those things are undesirable, but in the end I just deleted it because it felt futile...
Maybe if you have such a small space to work with, no PC, and no agar skills (or space to even use agar/set up a SAB), PF tek would be better than bulk?

If you're just going to buy premade shit ask the vendor you bought it from for help. This is a cultivation forum. Please look up how to do stuff then post an actual question if you're confused

He's actually helping you regardless of your translation of his attitude.
UTSF for the rest
FOR EXAMPLE:
Why do I NOT need a humidifier?
Why do I NOT use pre-sterilized rye.
WHY do I not use the search function?

That's what you want to do here. You're counting on some douchebag who's trying to make money off of new growers preparing everything perfectly for you and sending you quality materials and instructions. If a million things beyond your control don't go perfectly, you're fucked, just like with the used condom. You can grow with your own materials for much less money with a much higher success rate and yield, and you'll know that things were done right and that you didn't waste all your fuckin $.
Just search through the past month, hell even the past two weeks, of threads on the board for grow kit threads and see for yourself how well picking up the used condom from the ground worked for other people. Hint: not only did they get her pregnant, they both got herpes too.

The problem with that is i dont have a preasure cooker and i dont want to have to buy one either, thats why i figured pre sterilized might work out to my advantage. I have bought pre sterilized sub before and started to work but as I said before, my whole house was flooded out.
Is there any reason that pre-sterilized sub is looked down on? If it is what they say it is, I don't see how it could be a problem..
Thanks for the replies, positive and negative

Once you got the tools it is cheaper to do the work by far.
You got to keep temps regular in your vessel 70-80 (automated somehow). Flow Hood, petri's, PC, jars, lids, bags, trays, sunlight, fogger, Pots, grains, water, blenders whoa.... looks like you got some UTSF'n to do
