Where to place thermometer considering this
    #24020083 - 01/18/17 01:55 PM (7 years, 12 days ago)

Hi,

This is the first time I'm cultivating mushrooms and I bought a grow kit, an electric mat and a thermometer/hidrometer.

The thing is I'm using the electric mat which is heating the muschrooms kit box, which is placed inside a plastic bag surrounded with water.

My question is: what should I measure?

If I measure the microclimate air inside the plastic bag which contains it all I get 17C. But the Mat is heating from the bottom up, so for sure the mushrooms are at a higher temperature than that.

I thought of inserting the sensor within the soil, but I don't want to mess with the mushrooms.

What I decided is to measure the temperature of the whater, since it surrounds the grow kit, so I guess the soil must be at aproximately the same temperature (I placed the sensor completely surrounded by all sides with the bag containing whater).

Am I doing right? Should I measure it in some other way.



Thanks!

I would throw it in a draw its no use, room temp is all you need. Then I would throw that stupid choke bag that comes with kits in the bin and make a proper fruiting chamber. Look up SGFC simple as a tote with holes and 4" of damp perlite perfect environment.  Thermometer and other electronic devices are of no use learn what to look for with your eyes its really easy.
youve been suckered into buying a load of shit heat mats are for reptiles not mushroom cultivation
