Fish tote + Brew Pad ....Idea / Experiment

So, I have somewhat of an idea.......
Take something like this........(Runs on 25 W power) possibly with some sort of solar panel

Put it at the bottom of one of these with some sort of false bottom on a slight angle opposite the cord attachment for water drainage reasons.....

Construct your woodlover bed, mine will likely go in my un-winterized sun porch or shed...
Then let some mid winter experimenting begin.
I am a certified electrician so I am comfortable in every way trying this, even if I have to modify the blanket at all.
I may just use some low voltage heat trace and a controller and put it directly on the bottom of the tote, I'm still working out the logistics. Any and all criticism is welcomed!!

How cold is your winter? Put it close to your foundation and use some styrofoam if it's that cold

Pretty cold, can get up to -20. It's more or less an experiment to try and initiate fruiting at such temps. Who wouldn't want some fresh cyans on Christmas day......

Put a cold frame green house over it, if it gets that cold. You HAVE to have air temp above freezing around the fruiting body. If not then the mushroom would freeze as soon as it breaks the soil line. A good cold frame green house, against foundation, on south side ideally, would add a lot of luck to this.

It will be going in my un-winterized sun porch. I'll prob just use direct burial low volt heat trace with a controller and temp probe (pretty much an in-floor heat mat) with a wrap or 2 around the inside of the upper portion of the tote with a clear tote bin upside down over it. I can get all the materials for this for nothing, prob got some of it here. Only expense would be if I decide to implement a cheap solar panel, and of course electricity and time.

I't will take awhile to dial in as the temp fluctuates quite a bit in the sun porch, it's got 12 brand new argon windows, it could literally be -10 outside, on a sunny day and reach above 0. I realize this will be a lot of trial and error, but I assure you it will happen, failure or not. I plan on using fully colonized cyan spawn once I get it dialed in to fruiting temperatures.
