temperature advice

in pre fruiting preperation i haveput some rinsed perlite in my single bottle fruiting chamber with no cake, i put a larger hole in the top of the lid and poked the sensor in and let it do its thing for a while, the bottle which is about an inch above any surface with the carboard on the sides is directly above where the heat lamp is of my snakes viv, the humidity eventually got a good rate of 95+ but the temps are only around 21-22c
as a test i put the bottle in a closed cardboard box again directly above the heat source which is a mild one given the lamp is on the other side of the wood, temps rose to 24-25 after a little while
im wondering how different it will be when i put the fruiting cake in there, will the cake affect the behaviour of the chamber much, dispite being told its a bad idea im now considering doing some tests in the box with a small heat pad i have set on a timer to come on for 5 mins which is the smallest interval and then off for 5 10 or 15mins, located outside the box at first
pics of cake will pop up soon

If you're comfortable they will be too. Don't worry about it.

Mine seem to do best at 70-72 F so 20-22 C should be fine. NO heating pad. Heat the air around your grow. I use a small space heater in the winter.

Its a bit cold in the mornings here in Uk so keep your stuff in a room where your nice and comfy. Dont use heat mats they are for reptiles not shrooms.
