Good heater for incubation?
    #7629956 - 11/13/07 11:24 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I'd like to incubate my bag of rye berrys in the same tubberware that I grow in and I don't have enough money to buy a fish heater and another tubberware. I was thinking of sticking an old computer power supply in with the incubating substrate. I'm not sure if that will raise the temperature enough, and the built up dirt might bring some unwanted contams into the equation. Any ideas for a cheap heater?

put your jars, bags, etc. on top of your frig, freezer or hot water heater.

the heat from these devices will help colonize your substrate faster.


I suggest putting them in a box, so they aren't too noticable to unwanted eyes.

Although i may advise others in a general way regarding all types of mushroom grows, and may even post question from other forums about growing "active" mushrooms, i only grow non-"active" mushrooms and edibles.

I use two large plastic containers... one filled with water, and the other one in it. In the water I have a fishtank heater. That keeps a nice and constant temperature.
