Yeah a butane lighter is fine. Pretty good idea putting them in your grow room the closer it is to 86 degrees the faster the mycelium will grow. Just make sure they don't get to hot or they'll die. As far as strains go I'm doing Golden Teacher. This is my first grow with shrooms. They took forever to colonize but then again my temps weren't ideal. But so far I haven't had any probs with contams. Had a scare earlier today when I was doing the dunk roll. I saw some blue on the bottom of my cake but it turns out it was just bruising. Which is actually the reason I chose GT in the first place. Along with the fact that it's potent and produces a high yield it also has great bruising effect, producing blues that can be almost blackish. Shroomery.com has a great thread on the diff strains. But I figure that B+ is a good enough strain to star with. I think I'm gonna order that next. In all honesty a glovebox may not be entirely necessary but it can't hurt to be extra cautious. If you don't use a glovebox and get contams you'll be kicking yourself later for it.
