I aim for 84-85 for incubation, my friend's had good results when he does that.

Thanks for the temps... any suggestions on a good way to do this indoors w/o having to crank the heat up. Would a heating pad work and for how many hours a day does the temp need to be in that range?
Thanks again!

Please direct me to the link/post on how to do that...
(Build an incubator that is)
Earlier today I was thinking of placing my substrate in my car as the temp in there is about 80+ all day... lol... I really want to partake!

I would think the heat in your car would get to hot during various parts of the day. Summer isn't here yet but I'm sure the temp in my car gets well above 90F sometimes. I usually aim for about 80F.
You might want to go with a tek that uses a fish tank heater. They work great and are affordable.

Yeah you are right about the car... it gets way to hot.
I broke down and built an incubator, it works great!
