Cheap fix for block incubation during cold months
    #27051569 - 11/22/20 06:52 AM (3 years, 2 months ago)

This is for extremely small scale growers who are on the cheap and dont have much space to work with. Ive seen youtube vids for incubation chamber that involve water and water heaters and totes within totes and all that extra jazz.. but I wanted something much simpler. Ive been using an electric blanket as the months get colder cause I like to keep my apartment cool. I just plop my 8 blocks down on it and then drape the enda over the tops. This is the second round of blocks Ive done and it works like a charm. Typically Ive been opening the blanket when I go to work, and when Im home I cover them and keep the heat at a mid level. I threw a dollar store thermometer into the mix so that keeps me in the right range. I dont suggest leaving the blanket on while you sleep, thats a good time to let your blocls breathe anyway. I know this isnt ideally what you want to do for incubation, and yes it causes a little bit of temps swings but Ive had great results thus far. I let a block colonize in my room temp and it took twice as long and is still rather weak looking. Just a good cheap solution if youre struggling to keep blocks warm on a budget in the winter. Hope it helps someone!
