I'm really trying to average 75-77
Is closing the lid a bad idea? The air inside cools down fast cause RT is 62f
The things set too Max and mi tote is bleeding heat too fast. My issue is insulation I realize.
Thinking about putting incubator in another tote just for shits and insulation.

Also a large mycelial mass produces nice heat yes, colonizing bags/jars don't really until a larger mass is achieved.
There is a tray in it, once that starts making its own which it already kind of is but sits at 69f I'll take it out, cause then hes breathing hard. Will fully colonized subs fruit at 63-65f? Humidity is no concern.

I have a heat lamp set up in a cabinet that I put makeshift weatherstripping in. I have the heat lamp set up to kick on if temp falls below 22C and turns off if it hits 24C.
Is using heated water preferable? Seems like that's what most people are doing.

TBH your method is more preferable. I'm working with the aquarium heater rn

Yeah I’ve been fruiting in low 60s for months. Takes a couple extra days but you get some solid stems.
At first I was doing everything in low 60s but the jars slowed down a lot so I had to heat them a little. I think the coir insulates enough to keep the myc going at a decent pace. Once they’re recovered from the spawn the difference in speed from lower temps is negligible.
Plus it stalls contams.

Word, so that's what I'm doing. Using incubator to increase temp during colonization. Once colonized spawn to sub 1:2-1:3 it should recover fast.
Awesome t know fruiting is good in 60s
Colonization is a no go at 60s

Danke, my jankulation strat with the banquet is proving successful. Dialed back the thing t 83f and already it's holding better.
Jankulation = insulation

contams are not an issue with incubators it's just those cheap ideas that bite people in the ass. so sticking a heat at under your jars= bad idea, great way to dry grain. tub in tub= great system for those who want stable temps. what you have= a warm jar of liquid that just puts out a temp fluctuation, not gonna be consistent. pour the water in a tub, put your heater at about 75-78 max. put another tub the same size over this, put your jars in, the aquarium heater has a built in thermostats and will keep the water at a steady temp which heats your tub nice and evenly.
--------------------
  It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn I'm tired do me a favor

With the insulation it holds 72f still.
I have to make the jar sealedish instead of open. So far im still dialing it in.
I want the jar of water to leak out heat and hold 77-79
It'll work I have to tinker tho
But hey beats 62f

Jar rigged closed, now maintaining 75 so far. Still being dialed. Heater set Max may have to bring down if it gets too hot

Shes a guaranteed 80f fighting heat dispersion lol
