No, we do not recommend to use heating mats wit your magic mushroom grow kit. In most cases the heating mats are to warm and active. When not properly used your grow kit could dry out and your grow kit could become faulty.

Can I use a heatingmat for grow kits?

Yes, when you have experience and time to use it properly. With that being said, the actual need for the heat mat is more compulsory in wintertime or when the mushrooms are being grown in colder conditions. In theory, you want your grow kit microclimate to have a stable 23-24°C temperature all throughout the duration of the growing process. This means that in most places, summertime might not require a heat mat. Worse than that, if the temperature goes above 27-29°C – your magic mushroom colony will die out entirely.

To summarize, a heat mat is a perfect way to make sure that your flushes grow big, strong, and fast. But you always have to evaluate the situation and adjust it to the needs of the perfect magic mushroom colony microclimate. If you’re not “on it”, there is a big chance that your grow kit becomes faulty.
