Well, heat isn't usually an issue since most people (not me) use some kind of heater system to keep their FC at 86 or close, which I assume is about 12-15 degrees warmer than most peeps keeps their house.

So maybe HID is not the best way to go, but it does kill 2 birds with one stone, if your FC is in a room cooler than ideal.

Since cubies DO NOT need a temp drop, heat is your friend.

Try one cloned casing at room temp and another at 86, you will see what I mean.

HID is intense enough to penetrate, common household bulbs are not, typically...





fc should never be that hot. even incubation chambers should be around 83 since the jars are a couple degrees warmer on the inside..

cubes definitely need a temp drop to promote good pinsets.

please stop spreading disinformation.

I guess Roger is spreading misinformation as well huh? You better attack him next.

back to basics. temp drops are good to increase your pinset. shit you can grow cubes on stacks of 100 dollar bills but its not going to give you great yields. roger was simply stating that you 'can' do so..not that its better. ask anyone in here which is better, fruiting at 75 or fruiting at 85 and you will get the same response every time. your wrong. period. once again.

I like to cover the freshly applied casing layer with foil for four or five days to begin colonization, then put in the FC as the myc begins to reach the surface. Patch(optional, but helps) the myc that has already reached the surface and put in the FC. I also don't have AC in my area and sometimes the FC heats into the 90's in the afternoons. They still fruit OK.
RR

I've fruited them outdoors in my climate when the daytime temps were in the fifties, and night time temps in the forties. They did fine.

84F to 86F is not ideal for colonization. Growth has already begun to slow down by 84F. Growth is fastest in the 75F to 81F range. They're far less picky at fruiting time, although I've found the quality of the fruits are better with lower temperatures.
RR

No temperature change is required. I've actually fruited at a higher temp than the mycelium was incubated at, and everything worked fine.
RR

Who is spreading misinformation? You, or Roger and me?
