Mushroom Heat Mat (Infrared)

Infrared Mushroom Heat Mat - Optimum temperature for Magic Mushroom cultivation

Magic mushrooms don't like cold feet (who does?) and low temperatures (below 18°C will force the mycel into a state of "hibernation") can result in slow colonization and stunted growth during fruit-body formation - not only do they grow at lower rates at low temperatures, the percentage of aborts can increase dramatically as well. By giving them a little extra care in form of a heat mat you can speed up colonization and fruit-body formation. Instead of cranking up the radiator use this handy small heat mat to provide cosy warmth to your brood and grow magic mushrooms the whole year round without hurting your purse. This electric heat mat heats up your magic mushroom grow kit to 24°C - the ideal temperature for Psilocybe cubensis to fruit.

How to use the heat mat

Place your grow kit (a customary small, large or XXL box) on top of the heat mat. The grow box should be inside the grow bag.

Make sure to keep a space between the grow kit and heatmat in order to ensure for a free air-flow. You can use for example: A grillage, shot glasses, corks or other heat-proof objects.

Plug the power plug in the power socket and that’s it!

The heat mat can be kept switched on 24/7 as long as the air can circulate freely. Make sure the heat mat does not get wet!

Keep in mind that a heat mat won’t compensate for a room temperature that’s too low (below 18 degrees Celsius)! Doing so will dry out your kit.

If the temperature in the room in which you grow is above 22°C, you won't need to use the heat mat.
