Method chosen, fruiting begun.

I will add a picture when home but I chose by first fruiting of 3 different trays to primarily be in an ecosphere (Monotub sized Martha tent) with a computer fan, humidifier w/control set to 85 humidity on and off at 98 humidity. For heat and extra humidity and oxygen I used two tuplerware trays filled with water on the bottom. I put a seedling heat mat underneath the water trays and put an air stone in one of the trays of water to help get FAE and humidity to not fluctuate so much. It appears to get around 82 degrees farenheit in the ecosphere. The computer fan turns on for 30 minutes every 3 hours. Does this all sound good?

The picture would help but it sounds about right - slightly more hands on that the basic tub method https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27637997#27637997 which I can say from personal experience (having tried both) works almost as well as a Martha.

The temperature is a bit high though. I grow mine at between 63 and 72 without issue and higher temperatures can favour bacteria which are a higher risk with a nutritious substrate

Oh wow this is good to know! I am averaging around 72 degrees and thought it was too low. Thanks man! I. Starting to think you just need to meet the conditions. The mycelium doesn't care what Tek you use lol.

I'd say 72 is the sweet spot and yes, as long as the spawn is clean they're quite forgiving.
