Will 86° F adversely affect mycelial growth?
    #26536933 - 03/15/20 04:15 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

I recently created a thermalizer for my PF jars, and I have them set to 80° F with my temperature controller. This temperature controller usually allows it to get three degrees hotter before shutting off the heating element, is this ideal—83°maximum? I just set them in the thermalizer today and preheated the water the initial temperature they were sitting at is 86° but it will cool down at the rate of circulated water. Should I add anything or adjust anything to my method?

Incubating jars just isn't really necessary at all. Sure it can increase

growth rate to some extent but I've never felt it to be worth the work.

When they colonize just fine at room temperature why add in the extra

variables when you don't have to ya know what I mean? But to answer your

question I wouldn't let it go over 80°F to be on the safe side.

They will colonize just fine at room temp.  I would remove them from whatever contraption you've put them in and simply set them on a shelf in a closest or something.  Check on em a couple times per week, circling any areas you want to specifically keep track of, and just let the mycelium do its thing.  Mycelium is exothermic.  It's internal temperature will be higher than the external environment's temperature.

I've read RR saying that you do not want to go over 83 as the contams will grow faster than myceleum. If you're comfortable, your myc probably is too. I like my grow area around above 68, below 78.

What is your room temp normally? people often say room temp is fine without giving actual figures, then they hear people with cold rooms and instead of admitting they should have given a temp they say "that's to cold to be living in" or sometimes quite insulting or condescending comments.

If you do need it can you not just set the temp lower? if the real upper limit is 3 higher set it 3 lower.

I use heating but its thermostatically controlled and very low power so there is not much swings and only a few degrees above usual room temps. I find a significant difference. However most people fuck it up and might be safer without it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_temperature

You need to maintain room temperature to grow cubes indoors.

By room temperature I mean the well defined range of 68-72F indoor temperatures for human comfort.

What about tropical and subtropical strains they seem  to thrive in wild at that temperature

They do, and Cubensis like that temp just fine, that's not the problem, the problem is contaminants like it even more, so unless you are perfectly sterile, which is pretty much impossible, you'll end up with jars full of bacteria.  Wild mushrooms aren't growing in a sealed container.

Isn’t 86 supposed to be where it can kill the myc?

I had a shoebox that was right in the sun the last week and I hit it with the infrared gun just to see, lid was 91 and sub surface was 87. Crazy cuz the room is only around 70.
