heat , tempature

Ok I have a question , I have read many post trying to find an answer and I can so here we go. I was wondering about keeping the temp. once you are trying to grow the shooms and how you would keep it in the low 70's like it suggest. I found many entrys about heat and incubating but thats not what I want. It is cold out and my house only stays around 60 so they grow box would not be warm enuff. I was thinking I could take the same approach as incubating and have a container with the cakes in it and submerge it under water in a larger container and use a fish tank heeater to keep the temp at around 70ish , good idea or no ? not sure here . But it would be a good way cause i could just use my incubating chamber for both cycles.

Alien's Tek? Yeah that's a good idea, but you need it around 82.

I am not lost.. i am going there looking for it.. and when i get there and find it, i will know what it is.. "The way to stop violence is not to go out and let your head be beaten in but to say, you want to take my life risk yours!" "are you sure u want to eat all them shrooms??" "yes i want to hear what my mind has to say..." remember opions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink.

Ive read about that as far as incubation goes band how you want the temp at 82 and im planning oin doin that but im talking about for the growth (fruiting) cycle doin the same thing but keeping the temp at the prime temp. needed for fruiting, if im making any sence here lol. sum it up again im gonna take my jars after they are steril andinjected with spores and do that method ok so lets skip ahead now the jars are all white and ready to grow so now I empty the cakes from the jar and put them in a steril container that will fit in my big tub and lowerr the temp. to i believe it said 70's for fruiting? and like so. hopefully you understand what I mean

a cube is a cube.. IMO its all personal prefrence.. and if you can i would cancel your order and use a sponcored shroomery vendor, that way you know your not gonna get ripped off.. any sponcered shroomery vendor will be reliable and honest to deal w/.. and probly will be cheaper than were you going..

Shroom Synergy just to make sure we are both on the same page you use the TiT type setup for both incubating and fruiting correct ?

I mean I figure I need a way to keep the temp controlled in both phases so why not two birds with one stone

it will work, just make sure once you see pins forming to fan 3-6 times a day.

That's fine if you're only planning on a single grow at a time. If you want to have any type of continual harvest you will want a seperate incubator and fruiting chamber so you can be incubating while you're fruiting.

IMO manual fanning would be best if your gonna use a TiT for your grow box. that way you know your getting all the CO2 out and the fresh air in.. im not saying a fish pump wouldnt work.. just think fanning would be your best bet..

well yeah im gonna have to use the fanning method anyways I think , the only reason I considered a fish pump is I work 12 hour swing shift so 3 or 4 days a week I am not here for over 13 hours maybe I could set up a silent exhaust system with small computer fans or something I f I absolutely had to

uhh ya you can just fruit at 60 degrees i know i have. or place your fc if its a tupper made on top of your modum or wireless router that brings up the temp a little OR use slightly more wattage for your 12 hour light cucle to bring up your temp 12 hours a day.
remember people this isn't an exact science. mushroom grow outside where it it not always exactly 72 degrees
