Mushroom incubator and mushroom fruiting box. Full digital display.
Housed within a double skinned stress resistant storage box and featuring our SystemSimple Plug and Play Digital Thermostat. The GrowBuddie40 is Sleek, Strong and very versatile.
Why:
Because we listen to our customers.....
So you have been asking for a smaller version of the GrowBuddie and you have been asking for a heated grow chamber for Monotubs. We feel the GrowBuddie40 will suit your needs perfectly. Especially as the GrowBuddie40 is designed to take one of our 4lbs substrate bags for simple mono tubbing.
The 50/50 rye grain/hpoo work perfectly in this size of tub. Just colonise the bag in the growbuddie40 and then pour the contents of the bag out into the tub for fruiting.

7watt heat mat
Digital thermostat
Uk Plug 3amp
Lid included.
Pre-set to maintain temps of 26-27c
The double skinned stress resistant storage box design allows for the heat mat and wiring system to be kept dry and isolated away from your Mushroom Growing Project. The included temperature probe has been positioned for you already and don't worry, the temp probe is inside the base void also so there is no chance of electrical system failure.
We have added more ventilation holes for you in the side walls. The vent holes can either be left open or closed with micropore tape or polyfill cushion stuffing. Blocking or partially blocking the air holes with breathable filter material will decrease the amount airflow through the box. The vent holes are melted through the plastic walls and this seals the unit together at the same time. Melted holes are much less likely to crack than drilled holes as the plastic is not removed with melting. Rather forming a re-enforcing ring around the melted vent hole.
The addition of polystyrene sheets to the base of the GrowBuddies means that all the heat is now directed up into the box so making the heating system supper efficient.
All you need to do is remove the protective Uk Plug cover to Plug and Play. Simple.

The Growbuddie40 is fully stackable with each box-set able to support 20kg in vertical weight. Feel free to add up to 2kg of projects to each box and stack 6 high knowing you will still be under 170cm in total height.
I understand that space in usually restricted for most mycologist and even the largest hobby space gets fill rather quickly.
Being able to stack your incubation and fruiting boxes like this will allow you to use your space most efficiently.
The upwards motion of the heat will also mean that some heat mats may not even need to come on as the box is being warmed by the box below.
