And if I use a heater and a pump? Should I still put perlite on the floor of my box?

Heater and a pump? You mean an incubator? No, you don't want perlite in an incubator.
You don't need a pump necessarily either.

Spacevox search the hell out of this site!! It has great info in the postsection as well as in the FAQ.

Perlite to help having HIGH humidity in your GROWING aka FRUITING chamber. YOu soak the perlite with water and place your jars on it.

You put it at the bottom. At roomtemperature (mine is 68 at night) your fruitingchamber dont need additional heat.
It needs fresh air. You can do that with an airpump.

Since you really know nothing (not an insult) I suggest you read up, so you have more info and can ask more pointed questions and the answrs might even make sense to you! :laugh:

Good luck, :thumbup:

MF
