The use of light when growing shrooms (PF Tek)?
    #14759023 - 07/12/11 07:53 PM (13 years, 6 months ago)

So I think I have a pretty good idea of how to use the PF Tek method of growing shrooms, but the only part I'm troubleshooting, is how  I use light. Do I have to expose my colonized jars to light until pins show up? Also, once I have the cakes in the fruiting chamber, do I need to expose it to light then as well? Any help wouldbe appreciated, thanks

No bright direct light on jars, some light is ok, maybe beneficial.
You will need light of the correct color spectrum for fruiting, sunlight is best.

Just put them in your Fruiting Chamber and let them sit on the shelf. The ambient daylight cycle will work just fine. Avoid direct exposure, it doesnt take much. Good luck and post pics when you're there.
