Shrooms are sensitive little fellows. They need exactly enough heat to be able to grow. You can provide that with this infrared heating mat. The mat radiates heat via invisible infrared light which keeps the heat local. That is energy efficient and a lot safer as well.

Directions for use
You use mat during the entire cultivation. Unroll the heating mat completely. Place it in a bright spot in the house, but not in the sun. In any case, this kit should not be in direct sunlight or in complete darkness. Note that there must be something between the heat mat and the growkit. Do not make direct contact. Place a piece of cardboard or a towel folded in half between them. Our favourite: a few tip books as legs (see recommended products).
Place the growkit on the heating mat. Turn the heat mat knob to the highest position and leave it there for the entire grow. Check every day for condensation on the inside of the bag. No condensation? Spray the inside of the bag wet with a plant sprayer on the mist setting. Make sure you don't touch the contents of the breeding tank. So just the bag. After 10 to 20 days you will see the first mushrooms appear. From that moment on, open the bag for a minute every day to refresh the air. You can harvest the mushrooms as soon as the membrane under the hat threatens to come loose. You can find an extensive manual under the heading 'documents' on this page.
Please note: is the temperature in the house constantly higher than 22 degrees? Then you don't have to use the heat mat.
