curious about the best way to keep humidity up and cold shock at the correct temp..atleast 5-20 deg. below reg spawning temp. considered using perlite, storage container(adeq size), fresh air through mini computer fan with intake and out take...using micro filter over fan..but need a way to cool the temp a bit more...

any ideas would be great!!!!! thanks..peace..

Best way is just put them in an area in your house thats 70 degrees. Yes, have your fruiting chamber be a sterlite plastic container with perlite. Keep your humidity high with a nice layer of it, moistened. Fan 1-5 times a day until you start seeing pins.

Get cold paks from some place selling camping gear and freeze them then use them in your terrarium. You will have to change them regularily, but it will help. Be careful not to freeze the mushrooms. As the temperature goes down in the terrarium, the relative humidity will increase as the cold air can't hold as much air as the warm air surrounding it.
