! We are super excited to be going to a show this weekend and hopefully coming home with some beautiful balls! This week we have been doing the final touches on everything and it looks great! We have a CB70 Series rack (7 tall) from AP and our space heater in the room (it's still randomly cold in Iowa). We keep checking our temps and can't seem to get them "perfect." We figure we would post them here and see what everyone has to say.
They are listed top rack to bottom and hot spot then ambient.

We are using an IR gun to check temps and oursubstrate is newspaper. Our humidity is keeping at 50 - 55%. Are these numbers ok? Should we aim for more perfect ones? If so, ideas on how to get there? We've messed with dropping and raising both ambient temps and heat tape (which is what you are seeing between times) and we've learned that if we drop ambient a 1 degree our hotspot also lowers some but if we have that degree back, the temps at 5:45 am is what you get.
