Q: Do, or Will Cubes grow towards light? A: You tell me...

I see this as proof positive that cubes will grow towards light, at least. I have also seen cubes growing towards FAE holes so it is kind of a mystery to me why they would grow towards both light and fresh air?

OK the fact that almost every pin in the tub is growing leaning towards the light means nothing?

Your pictures do not clearly show that your hypothesis is supported by your evidence.
In other words, your pictures do not look like all the shrooms are growing toward the light.
In your first picture I can count 4 that are not growing towards the light. In your second picture I see three. Third doesn't show any proof that the shrooms are pointing in any particular direction (bad photo.) Same for the Fourth. The fifth has at least 3 that are not going towards the light (could be more, bad picture makes it hard to see.) Finally, the sixth shows 7 pins growing away from the light.

It was a MS tub, what do you expect, even though a few pins are growing"not towards the light" most of them are heading straight for the middle, some even curve towards the light after growing straight...
Just wait I will take more pics tomorrow, those fuckers are reaching for the light.

It is a 15W 6500k cfl in a jar inserted into a hole in the lid BTW, could they be growing towards the heat instead of the light? The jar in the lid barely raises my temp a few degrees at the sub...

haha one in the last picture looks like it's running away from the light. maybe they grow towards favorable conditions? some get the fresh air and need light so they grow to it and some get enough light so they grow to the fresh air? some look like they make cast a shadow causing a growth towards the light and that bigger one looks like it could be blocking the fae for the smaller pin so it grew away from the big one (or away from the ligh?)
idk just silly theories from a tired mind

I believe you, It would be a more convincing argument if the the light was coming from the side and the mushooms grew sideways

I have to say that these pics are a little unconvincing for me also. Sure some pins are growing towards the light but some arent also. Someone mentioned lighting from one end and you countered with lighting at both ends. I think a more positive test would b one light at an end

Based on all that I've read about this topic (which has been covered a lot), my mostly uneducated theory is that shrooms need a balance of resources (light, FAE/GE, moisture, etc), and they grow towards the source of whichever they're lacking and that if they're lacking more than one resource, they'll grow towards the middle. In other words, if they're low on light and FAE, and light is available at 3:00 and FAE is available at 6:00, they shrooms will grow towards 4:20.

you just had to slip that in there didn't ya? LOL.
I've got lights on both sides of my tubs 1 is about 2-3' above on the south & the other is about 6' away & 2-3' above on the north. The only thing I've noticed, as far as growth towards light, is that I got side pins like a mofo. The mushrooms don't grow towards it.
IMHO, mushrooms grow towards FAE, which to me, suggests your mono is allowing more air to raise from the substrate & out the center of your tub. Rather than out the two holes @ the ends.
 ^^That's a picture of a tub that was in the exact position I described above, notice how the mushrooms grew strait up & down? they grew towards the FAE not the light.

Mushrooms will orient their caps toward light. They are deriving energy from the light and position themselves to get maximum benefit.
What mushrooms do not need is light to 'tell' them which way to grow. They'll grow opposite gravity in total darkness.
Here's a picture of penis envy which was turning toward a light source near the floor for exactly this kind of demonstration. RR
