which stem cells are you culturing? If those are human embryonic stem cell, they are very sensitive so you have to use incubator with CO2 and temperature control. In fact, I would put all my cell cultures in the incubator.

I think u still need CO2 incubator, because it's so important to stabilize the pH medium, especially if your medium contain Sodium Bicarbonate.
Maybe it useful for you :P
