So I just moved and I had this awesome place in my closet that was always the perfect temp. Well now I have more space and I was like might as well do the TIT np right? Wrong I set my heater for 85 degrees thinking yea that will do it. NO.. it wont do it. I finally get a thermomiter today and check the temp it got to 90 and was still climbing. WTF I yanked that heater out the water and unpluged it. I was so mad I am just now getting it back to the right temps. My jars have only just recently been inoculated so hopefully no damage. But man why didnt I think about the temp being so high... I am an idiot.

Probably didn't do any harm.

I hope not I am worried about contams a bit.. But I know that the spores can survive the temps so I am going to just wait it out.

hey When my jars i just have had colonizing, once they got up to 96deg/f I was freakin out to but then I found out that 106deg/f is when spores die. So it is ok dont worry

Another example of why I recommend colonization at normal room temperature and have for years. RR

What do you recommend fruiting at?

Fruit at room temperature as well. There does NOT need to be a difference in ambient temperature between colonization and fruiting. Personally I do both at normal room temps, around 75ish or so.
Colonizing substrates produce their own heat when colonizing. Plenty of it. When colonization finishes, the temperature of the substrate drops on it's own, down to close to room temps. So nature takes care of that "temperature drop" for you.
I think incubators ruin far more grows then they help. My opinion anyways... but the results speak for themselves...

Really appreciate this. I was going to incubate my spawn and substrate at around 82 and then fruit at 74 or so.
