Almost ready to begin the first batch...

Tomorrow I will be going out to buy the final piece for the project which would be the pressure cooker. Wanted to share my setup I've been putting together for the last few weeks. Best part about it is that the whole setup is completely enclosed under my bed, even with the growing light on.
I have the customized fridge that will be the incubating chamber and keeps temperatures at a constant 83 degrees. Then I have the cool mist humidifier who two branches coming into two fruiting chambers that keep a constant humidity above 90% and temperature in the mid 70's.
Please comment and let me know if I have any huge flaws or if you have any suggestions in general. All help is appreciated.
Thanks

83 seems a bit high to me, but I'm sure it'll work fine.
Other than that, lookin good!

Just to let you know the metabolites will eat straight through the foil....83F will slow growth down anything above 81+ and more risk of contamination....75-78F no higher then 78F for grains...i've stated this too many times...my last time im stating it

hell yea... 75 to 78 is great... dont set them in aluminum foil until you get ready to case.. the foil will stick to the mycelium, and make it not side pin...
^^^^ then dont state it anymore... jeez
your room looks fine... I had 2 tubs just like that with a cool mist running 24 7 on both of them, and pumice in both tubs... worked great for me, and the only thing on a timer was the light.. I have since upgraded to a martha... but that does work..
you say this is under your bed? how big is your bed? or do you have another world down there like on little monsters? haha

o yeah.. take that cool mist off the carpet.. you will get water everywhere... put it in a bucket with some pumice or perlite in the bottom to soak up the water that leaks out...
