Hot Towel Warmer - Mycelium Colonization?
    #26100044 - 07/10/19 10:46 AM (5 years, 6 months ago)

So, I am aware that the ideal temperature for mushroom colonization is around 26 Celsius. I don't yet have an incubator of any kind, but the temperature has been okay with the summer heat. Now, I am curious. I have a hot towel cabinet and the temperature above it says it's around 32 celsius. But, if I set the PF tek jars on top would that speed up colonization or would it be too hot for the transference of heat from the top of the cabinet into the bottoms of the jars? Would it be helpful if I laid a couple of towels out?

Also, I am curious, what is the best way you speed up jar colonization and what type of incubators do you use?

Thanks in advance! ^_^

if you absolutely must use a heat source you should heat the area around the jars but not the jars themselves. the mycelium generates its own heat.
