First Time Growing Shrooms
    #24255249 - 04/18/17 07:42 PM (7 years, 8 months ago)

Hello... Once again.

I live in South Florida, and I am planning on buying a growing kit. I would like to know whether it is necessary to have a heating pad for my grow. Currently, temperatures around here are 76 Fahrenheit, but they are going to increase to the mid 80s. I am planning to keep my kit in my room and use artificial light and follow the guidelines.

And in general, will i need any sort of device to regulate temperatures for my grow? Thanks.

Once again, I apologize for asking stupid questions, but I am quite new to the world of Magic Mushrooms.

Don't buy a grow kit they are all basically scams.
It's both cheaper and more effective to start from scratch.

You will need no such device. That is the perfect temperature for cubes. Optimum temperature range is 70-75 F. But they will still do fine between ~ 60-95 F

I agree with Aztec about grow kits, you can easily get better results for the same or less money by doing it on your own.

Your temps are going to be on the high side. Try to keep it below 80 if possible... this will help tons with contamination problems, especially if you're not using a pressure cooker.

If you haven't already, I recommend reading through through this tek or any recent PF variant. Even if you go a different route this covers a lot of basics.

To answer your actual question OP....no, you don't need a heating pad...especially with those temps already.

Following the pf tek may actually be easier than going online and buying a kit and waiting. Waiting is hard. Pf tek is easy. Takes me a hour tops to make the mix and fill 30 jars. A hour dude.

Grow stones? This sounds pretty risky.

Not sure, just wondering if keeping my grow behind my pc and giving it a few hours of artificial light a day would work.

Learn to grow stones.. That way even if they find it, it just looks like a nasty jar of mold. Fruit bodies tend to just be so obvious.

It could work but for the results you'll most likely get, it's not worth it.

Yea you can grow stones literally anywhere. And nobody knows what they are. 

I have a quart mason jar with a pound of dry truffles in it, my Mom came over to visit and didn't even think twice as to what it was in my cupboard.
It just looks like walnuts Of course I found a better place for it after haha
